FRIENDLY NEW YEAR WALKING


Some good walking news to start the year, and especially good news for Santiago Sánchez, the Spanish football fan who was "detained' in Iran while walking from Madrid to Qatar for the 2022 men’s World Cup, and held in Tehran after visiting the grave of Mahsa Amini, the young Iranian woman who died in custody after being arrested by morality police, for wearing her hijab "improperly."

 

The Iranian embassy in Spain said that Sánchez's release came thanks to the two countries' "friendly and historical relations." 

 

So that’s all right then.
