Morad sat down with @willy_lowry @TheNationalNews to talk about how he turned to art to find hope, strength, and light during the darkest time in his life. You can listen to the interview here: cdn.jwplayer.com/players/WOF2VU…
3/5 How Art Saved Morad Tahbaz from The Brutality of #Iran’s Evin Prison hostageaid.org/how-art-saved-… Abu Dhabi - The National “I kept myself very busy. I really didn't have too much spare time, & for me, that was critical, because my thoughts were, 'OK, I've got to finish this piece,…
We are overjoyed by the news of the release of the environmentalists, Morad’s colleagues and friends, #NiloufarBayani, #SepidehKashani, #TaherGhaderian & #HoumanJokar. This is a long-awaited moment of happiness and relief. bbc.com/persian/articl…
We are delighted and relieved that Morad’s dear friend & colleague Sam Rajabi is free at last. As we celebrate this moment for Sam, his family & friends, we continue to pray for the release of their environmentalist colleagues who are still detained #FreeIranianEnvironmentalists
Thank you @jgeltzer, @brett_mcgurk & @StateSPEHA for this excellent and important response. Detained Americans around the world are lucky to have you as the ones fighting to bring them home.
It still doesn’t feel real. Thank you @JakeSullivan46 and the entire Biden-Harris Administration. World class is right.

Trevor Reed responds to criticism of the deal that led to the release of five American prisoners from Iran. "Anyone that is reasonable can see that refusing to negotiate with these governments does not guarantee that they're not going to take other hostages."
The condemnation of a President for bringing Americans home is to place party before country. To use the pain of other Americans to further a political agenda is disgusting. This tactic deters such actions & prolongs the suffering of other innocent Americans.
Personal statement from Morad Tahbaz upon his return to the United States of America:
My family & I are overwhelmed by the outpouring of love. Thank you to the countless individuals who helped make our family whole again. We are so grateful to those who supported us over the past 6 years. We appreciate your patience & understanding as we navigate to our new normal
This would not have been possible without your tireless advocacy and steadfast support, @jahimes. Thank you for making sure this day could become a reality.

𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝗶𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗸, 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗱 & 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗱! At long last, Siamak Namazi, Emad Shargi & Morad Tahbaz have landed on US soil. Today, these citizens can put behind them the years lost behind bars & start to heal after the trauma of their unjustified incarceration &…
Some of you maybe wondered why I had #Morad in my twitter title. It was only a tiny gesture, but was a recognition that he should have been freed at the same time as @FreeNazanin. Tonight, the US government has secured his freedom. Sending joy & gratitude to him and his family.
@FreeMorad1 Welcome home, Morad and Vida!
This image of Siamak Namazi, Morad Tahbaz and Emad Shargi’s first moments of freedom makes me incredibly happy. But it’s also a reminder that these men and their families have had years of their lives stolen from them. I am so relieved they will finally be reunited.
This is such amazing news. I know from watching Nazanin return home last year how emotional a moment this will be for the family. Having dealt with Morad's amazing daughter @rrroxxxanne and his relatives in my constituency, I pay tribute to their relentless campaigning.

Today, Sep 18 marks 8 yrs since I was kidnapped in Iran around 4:15pm Tehran time. For the past 8 yrs, this date has been a black one for me, but not anymore. Congratulations to Siamak, Emad & Morad. @HostageAid @FreeTheNamazis @FreeMorad1 @NedaSharghi @jrezaian @XiyueWang9
Statement from the family of Morad and Vida Tahbaz:
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Governor Richardson. He was a true statesman and fierce advocate for Americans detained abroad. We are thinking of his family and friends during this difficult time. wsj.com/politics/bill-…
