Nobel Peace Prize winner Narges Mohammadi was hospitalized in Iran after a severe deterioration of her health in prison .

Her family's foundation reported she suffered two episodes of complete loss of consciousness and a severe cardiac crisis.

Prison doctors deemed her condition unmanageable on-site, necessitating her urgent transfer to a hospital in Zanjan.

The Norwegian Nobel Committee had previously expressed concern about the worsening health of the Iranian human rights activist.

Mohammadi, who won the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize while imprisoned, remains in an unstable condition, with calls for her transfer to a Tehran hospital for specialized treatment.
