President Donald Trump has made a big claim amid the ongoing conflict between the US and Iran. He has said that Iran has allowed an American citizen named Dena Karari, who was wrongly detained, to leave the country. Dana Karari's lawyer Jared Genser also said that American citizen Dana Karari had been detained in Iran since December 2024. He has now been released. She is returning to America.
Trump wrote on 'Truth Social' that 'Dana Karari is now safely out of Iran and is fine. The United States appreciates this goodwill step by Iran. Trump initially did not reveal the identity of the woman, but later his lawyer named her as Dena Karari.
Genser confirmed the case in one of his posts on ' Dena is now safe and returning to America.”
According to reports, Dena Karari is an Iranian-American woman with dual citizenship. She worked for an American technology company. She also ran a charity for children in Iran. She went to Shiraz to visit family in December 2024, but was prevented from leaving Iran after authorities confiscated her passport. He was accused of espionage and collusion with the enemy country.
Last month, a US official said the US government was following the cases of at least six Americans detained in Iran. Of these, two were officially detained wrongly. Dana Karari's release comes at a time when Trump is considering increasing US military attacks on Iran. According to Axios, Tehran has taken similar steps in the past to reduce tensions with the US.
