Iran Heralded for Allowing ‘Limited Number’ of Women to Watch Volleyball

Following international outcry and protest over Iran’s detainment of Iranian-British national Ghoncheh Ghavami for attempting to attend a volleyball match between Iran and Italy last year, the government of Iran is reportedly “experimenting” with possibly allowing a select number of women to watch the Volleyball World League games in Tehran later this month. The move is yet to be officially endorsed.
