💨 Abstract

During Israel's attack on Iran, U.S.-operated Radio Farda provided accurate news to Iranians, countering state media misinformation. Despite staffing issues and U.S. administration threats, Radio Farda and VOA's Persian service continued broadcasting, receiving high traffic and appreciative feedback from Iranians. Both outlets face legal battles against U.S. efforts to curb their services, which are vital during the conflict.
