The controversy arose after Rostami posted a message on her Instagram account expressing shame over Iran’s assault on Israel. In her post, she stated, “As an Iranian, I am truly ashamed of the authorities’ attack on Israel, but you need to know that the people in Iran love Israel and hate the Islamic Republic.”

Shortly after making this statement, Rostami was reportedly arrested by Iranian authorities. Concerns about her safety intensified after a threatening comment from an account associated with Iranian security forces, which ominously stated, “We will shove you in a bag.”

Rostami’s arrest is part of a wider trend of dissent among Iranian athletes following Iran’s recent drone and missile strike on Israel. Numerous athletes and sports figures have condemned the actions of the Iranian authorities and distanced themselves from the regime. The recurring slogan “We are Iran. We are not the Islamic Republic” reflects a growing sentiment of opposition within the Iranian sporting community.
