Summary
Iran criticized the reported beating of Iranian students by police at Kazan Federal University in Russia during a visa renewal dispute.
Two students were detained and later released after Iran’s consulate intervened.
Iranian officials demanded accountability and announced an investigation.
The incident strains ties between Iran and Russia, which have grown closer through defense and trade cooperation, including Iran’s supply of drones for Russia’s war in Ukraine.
That’s so strange, Russia has such a good track record for warm hospitality and no genocide and stuff.
