✒️ We broadcast from exile, and the price is that we can never again see our families back in Iran 🔵 BBC Persian's ranarahimpour reveals why despite the difficulties of her job which has left her and her family in danger, she chooses to continue
, and the usual journalistic work – to get the story right, to provide all sides of it, to provide the context for the Persian-speaking audiences and, working with our other BBC News colleagues, in the context of the global developments – all this is compounded by the magnitude of what’s going on in Iran, and by its speed.
Protesters chant slogans during a protest over the death of Mahsa Amini in Iran after she was detained by the morality police For our social-media team, two things stood out. Not only was this woman walking calmly, whereas Nika had reportedly told a friend she was being chased by security forces, but our colleague Parham Ghobadi noticed that a cat visible in the background of the video was also walking calmly. If this were Nika, who had been involved in loud noisy protests fired on by tear gas, then the cat would be running from the commotion, too.
Family ties and common history is not where our “closeness to the story” ends. In the political divide heated to extremes, as BBC journalists we are used to working in a hostile environment – I’ve done this for 15 years now. But the hostility comes not just from the state that bans you from the country and harasses you and your family for doing your job.
Covering Iran and challenging its autocratic rulers has never been easy. There are no safe places for Iranian journalists either inside or outside the country. We at BBC Persian are used to this. We broadcast from exile, and the price of our work is that we can never again see our families back in Iran.
