By Nate Raymond
BOSTON, July 13 (Reuters) – An Iranian-born engineer was convicted on Monday of U.S. charges that he conspired to illegally export technology with potential application in military drones to a company in Iran whose customers included the country’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Mahdi Sadeghi, a dual U.S.-Iranian citizen and resident of Natick, Massachusetts who had worked at Analog Devices prior to his December 2024 arrest, was found guilty by a federal jury in Boston on three counts, including conspiracy to export technology to Iran in violation of U.S. sanctions.

The jury found Sadeghi not guilty on two other counts alleging violations of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani scheduled his sentencing for October 13.

Sadeghi’s lawyers declined to comment. They had argued at trial that he was innocent and had no reason to risk his career and the life he had built in the United States by breaking the law.

Prosecutors charged Sadeghi alongside an Iranian businessman they say ran a company that made a navigation system used in Iran‘s military drones, including one that struck a U.S. outpost in Jordan in January 2024. The attack by Iran-backed militants killed three U.S. service members and wounded over 40 others.

The businessman, Mohammad Abedini, was arrested in Italy at the request of the U.S. government but was released in January 2025 after Iran detained an Italian journalist, who was also freed later, in an incident that drew international attention.

Sadeghi, 43, proceeded to trial alone on charges against him, none of which concerned the attack in Jordan. The judge overseeing the case barred prosecutors from introducing evidence about the Jordan incident at his trial to avoid “unfair prejudice.”

Instead, the case focused on what prosecutors said were Sadeghi’s efforts to illegally procure and export technology, particularly sensors, from Analog Devices to Abedini’s Iran-based company, San’at Danesh Rahpooyan Aflak Co, or SDRA, which made the navigation system.

Sound on - A dictator requires no portrait; it is

Sound on - A dictator requires no portrait; it is the testimony of his victims that ultimately shapes his place in history.
In central London, an exhibit referred to as the “Ali Khamenei Crimes Hall” serves as a quiet but pointed reminder of abuses its organizers say must not be forgotten.
Regimes and their leaders eventually pass from power, but the historical record they leave behind endures.

COPENHAGEN, July 13 — A group of Iranian expatriat

COPENHAGEN, July 13 — A group of Iranian expatriates gathered outside the U.S. Embassy in Copenhagen on Monday to honor the memory of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who died Saturday at age 71 following a brief and sudden illness.

The gathering was organized by a group of Iranian Lion & Sun supporters based in Denmark. Attendees described Graham as one of the most consistent advocates for Iranian dissidents in the U.S. Senate, noting his willingness to publicly back opposition movements at moments when other Western officials were reluctant to do so.

Organizers said that stance is likely to shape how Graham is remembered within the Iranian diaspora community, even as tributes to the longtime South Carolina Republican continue to arrive from political leaders across the spectrum in Washington and abroad.

July 12 - Mourners gathered outside the U.S. Embas

July 12 - Mourners gathered outside the U.S. Embassy in London on Sunday evening for a memorial vigil honoring the late U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, who died Saturday at age 71. The gathering, held at 9 p.m., included a candlelight vigil and floral tributes.
The event was organized by Stage of Freedom, a coalition of pro-democracy activists spanning a range of political affiliations who use art and public performance to advocate for freedom in Iran.
Organizers described Graham as one of the most steadfast allies the Iranian people had in Washington, saying his willingness to stand publicly with them, at a time when many other leaders declined to do so, will define his legacy among the diaspora. Attendees framed his support as an act of principle that placed him firmly, in their words, on the side of humanity.

By Katayoun Halajan
July 13 - David Hockney, the pioneering British painter, passed away in London on June 11 at the age of 88. He was one of the most outstanding painters of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, and one of the world’s most celebrated artists.

His global fame was linked to several factors: his move to California in the 1970s, where he became known for his portraits and poolside scenes; for his constant artistic experimentation with new technologies (from Polaroid cameras to the iPhone and iPad); and for his openness about homosexuality at a time when, in Britain, it was still being decriminalized.

In 2025, the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris presented a major Hockney retrospective of some 400 works from between 1955 and 2025 — titled: “Do Remember They Can’t Cancel the Spring.”

Sahar Dehghan, an Iranian choreographer, director, and dancer based in France, was invited to collaborate on the exhibition by creating a dance performance inspired by the artworks on display. Drawing on the exhibition’s title, she developed a unique choreography.

“The moment I heard the word ‘spring,’ I immediately thought of Nowruz — the celebration that Iranians hold to welcome the arrival of spring. To this day, no government in Iran has succeeded in erasing this ancient tradition,” Dehghan said in an interview with Kayhan Life.

“How could I, as an Iranian — and as someone honored to have the opportunity to collaborate with David Hockney — not be inspired by the title of this exhibition?”
