Iran: Activists sound alarm as regime seizes Baha'i assets
Rights groups warn Iran is increasingly confiscating assets from government critics and members of the country's Baha'i faith, but also actors, athletes and journalists living abroad.
As Washington attempts to intensify economic pressure on Iran, ordinary Iranians are facing mounting financial distress.
Rights groups say Iranian authorities are increasingly using asset seizures against religious minorities, dissidents and government critics, adding a new layer of economic pressure for people already struggling with soaring living costs.
Members of Iran's Baha'i religious minority seem to be bearing the brunt of the crackdown.
