UN human rights experts condemned Iran for seizing the St. Peter’s Evangelical Church compound in Tehran and evicting Christian residents tied to the property. They said families—many low-income—were reportedly given only two weeks to leave and church leaders faced threats of arrest. The experts warned forced evictions violate international human rights law and risk leaving minority Christians homeless. They also said the move reflects a wider campaign limiting Persian-language Protestant worship, while Christians continue facing arrest, detention, and ill-treatment.
