Players from the Iranian women's team defied suspected undercover security officers to escape their hotel and claim asylum in Australia

The Iran women's national football team have become "heroes" and deserve to be free to live their lives, says former Iran men's head coach Afshin Ghotbi.

The Iran women’s soccer team has sung and saluted as its national anthem played ahead of the Women’s Asian Cup contest against Australia.

Nearly five decades later, Madjdi is among a group of Iranian women living in South Florida who were displaced by the Islamic Republic of Iran that took power in 1979. They’re now watching the conflict that started two weeks ago with a mix of anxiety and hope.

Before 1979, Iranian women wore miniskirts, earned advanced degrees, ran businesses, and lived lives that looked remarkably like their Western peers. Then came the Islamic Revolution—and everything changed.

Former Iranian women's soccer player Shiva Amini opened up on "The Story" about what the current national team could face from the regime.
