伊朗战争加剧对在伊被拘美国人安全的担忧


2026年3月6日 / 美国东部时间下午4:48 / 哥伦比亚广播公司新闻

美国与以色列对伊朗发动袭击前,至少有四名被监禁的美国公民的支持者日益担忧他们的安全,因为伊朗各地持续遭受猛烈轰炸。

其中两名美国公民身份已被公开确认:49岁的记者阿卜杜勒雷扎·”雷扎”·瓦利扎代(Abdolreza “Reza” Valizadeh),美国国务院于2025年5月正式认定其被伊朗”非法拘留”;以及61岁的卡姆兰·赫克马蒂(Kamran Hekmati),他于2025年7月在伊朗探亲时被捕。

战争爆发前,两人均被关押在德黑兰臭名昭著的埃文监狱。此后,他们的下落和状况尚无确认信息。

非营利组织表示,他们正在追踪另外两名据信被伊朗拘留的美国公民,其身份 CBS 新闻无法确认。

“我们知道,埃文监狱过去曾被以色列政府列为军事目标。在2025年6月以色列与伊朗的12天战争期间,该监狱实际上遭到了轰炸。因此,埃文监狱面临在某种军事打击中被击中的风险,”全球影响力组织(Global Reach)的退休联邦调查局助理局长、首席调查官基兰·拉姆齐(Kieran Ramsey)表示,该组织致力于将被错误拘留的美国人接回国。

“此外,由于卡姆兰是美国人,同时也是犹太人,监狱里的其他囚犯和看守可能会对他进行报复。随着时间一天天过去,我们的担忧不断升级,”拉姆齐告诉 CBS 新闻。

“以色列国防军(IDF)已向埃文监狱周边居民发出通知,要求他们撤离以避免空袭。显然,监狱内的囚犯无法享受同样的撤离待遇,”瓦利扎代的辩护律师、Akin Gump律师事务所合伙人瑞安·费希(Ryan Fayhee)告诉 CBS 新闻。”我们完全无法与雷扎或他在德黑兰的家人取得联系。现在他一定感到非常无助。”

CBS 新闻采访了英国囚犯林赛(Lindsay)和克雷格·福尔曼(Craig Foreman)的儿子乔·贝内特(Joe Bennett),两人也被关押在埃文监狱。贝内特能够每天与母亲通电话,母亲本周早些时候报告说,监狱附近发生爆炸,窗户被震碎。截至周五,她仍在监狱内,并能进行日常通话。

雷扎·瓦利扎代和卡姆兰·赫克马蒂是谁?

瓦利扎代曾在美国政府资助的广播电台自由欧洲电台/自由电台(Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty)波斯语部门”法尔达电台”(Radio Farda)工作,于2022年成为美国公民。

他认为自己已得到保证,可以安全返回伊朗——他的大部分家人都住在那里。但2024年抵达德黑兰探亲几天后,他被伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队拘留并送往埃文监狱。

他在严密审讯和隔离中度过了数周,伊朗官员近两个月未公开承认他的被捕。根据其律师2025年1月向联合国任意拘留问题工作组提交的请愿书,2024年12月,瓦利扎代因被指控”与敌对政府合作”被判处10年监禁。

此后,他的家人表示,患有哮喘的瓦利扎代出现咳嗽发作,且未获得药物治疗。

“作为一名曾为过去被错误拘留的美国人辩护的律师,这是一种非常不寻常的情况——在军事打击下,我们显然无法为雷扎进行有力辩护,”费希告诉 CBS 新闻。”很难想象律师能为雷扎做些什么,除了要求美国和以色列在埃文监狱附近采取极端谨慎态度。而且,雷扎并非埃文监狱内唯一的美国公民。”

据致力于确保被错误拘留美国人获释的非营利组织”全球影响力”称,赫克马蒂住在纽约州长岛,经营一家珠宝生意。1979年伊朗革命后,他从伊朗移民美国。

由于紧急家庭事务,他曾多次前往伊朗,但去年5月被阻止离境,并最终于7月被捕。他的辩护者称,他被指控违反了一项法律,该法律禁止伊朗公民在进入伊朗后十年内访问以色列,尽管他称自己已13年未去过以色列。后来,他又被追加指控,罪名是与以色列摩萨德情报机构特工会面。

伊朗的错误拘留历史

在美以对伊朗发动袭击的前一天,国务卿马尔科·卢比奥(Marco Rubio)将伊朗首次指定为”错误拘留国家赞助者”。这一指定是在去年秋天特朗普总统发布《保护美国公民免受海外错误拘留行政命令》后设立的。

“47年前伊朗政权掌权时,阿亚图拉霍梅尼通过支持劫持美国使馆人员巩固了权力,”卢比奥当时在声明中表示。”几十年来,伊朗继续残酷拘留无辜的美国人和其他国家公民,将其作为对其他国家的政治筹码。这种令人发指的做法必须结束。”

瓦利扎代的律师表示,美国特别代表史蒂夫·维特科夫(Steve Witkoff)和特朗普总统女婿贾里德·库什纳(Jared Kushner)在战争爆发前与伊朗进行最新一轮谈判时,瓦利扎代的名字被列入谈判名单。

“军事打击中断了我希望进行的关于雷扎的对话。我要说的是:如果伊朗方面正在寻找脱身之道,那就是释放包括雷扎和卡姆兰·赫克马蒂在内的所有被拘留美国公民,”费希说。

退休联邦调查局助理局长拉姆齐也暗示,美国囚犯可能成为解决冲突的潜在外交筹码。

“我们听到了很多关于战争起因和最终目标的说法,比如停止核材料富集、停止弹道导弹开发、停止使用代理人。我们希望在此基础上再增加一项:伊朗停止一切人质外交行为,”拉姆齐告诉 CBS 新闻。

拉姆齐表示,或许还有其他途径让被拘留者回国。

“我在联邦政府工作了30多年,如果你在一年前或两年前问我,这样的救援行动是否可行,我会说不可能。但看看本届政府在委内瑞拉对马杜罗采取的行动,我认为一切都有可能。”

美国国务院发言人周五告诉 CBS 新闻,他们已注意到2月27日前有关美国人在伊朗被拘留的报道,并正寻求提供领事支持。发言人表示,伊朗应立即释放所有在伊朗被拘留的美国人。

“特朗普总统明确表示,他希望所有被错误拘留的美国人安全回国,任何将美国人作为政治棋子的政权都将面临严重后果,”白宫副新闻秘书安娜·凯利(Anna Kelly)周五在给 CBS 新闻的声明中表示。

War with Iran fuels mounting concern for safety of Americans jailed in the country

March 6, 2026 / 4:48 PM EST / CBS News

Advocates for at least four American nationals who were jailed in Iran before the U.S.-Israeli strikes started are growing increasingly concerned about their safety, as intense bombing continues across the country.

Two of those U.S. nationals have been named publicly: 49-year-old Journalist Abdolreza “Reza” Valizadeh, whom the U.S. State Department formally designated as “wrongfully detained” by Iran in May 2025, and 61-year-old Kamran Hekmati, who was arrested in July 2025 while visiting family in Iran.

Both were being held in Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison before the war started. There has been no confirmed information on their whereabouts or condition since then.

Nonprofit groups say they are tracking at least two other U.S. nationals believed to be detained in Iran, whose identities CBS News cannot confirm.

“Evin Prison, we know, has been a military target by the Israeli government before in the past. During the 12-day war [between Israel and Iran in June 2025], it was actually bombed. So we have this risk of Evin Prison being hit in some kind of kinetic military strike,” said Kieran Ramsey, a retired FBI assistant director and chief investigative officer at the Global Reach organization, which works to bring home Americans wrongfully held abroad.

“Then we have the risk of reprisals by other prisoners and by guards at the prison, because Kamran is American. He’s also Jewish. So our concerns continue to escalate as every day goes by,” Ramsey told CBS News.

“The IDF, the Israeli Defense Force, had put the neighborhood of Evin Prison on notice that residents should depart to avoid air attack. So, obviously prisoners within Evin don’t have that same luxury,” Ryan Fayhee, a lawyer representing Valizadeh and a partner at the law firm Akin Gump, told CBS News. “It’s totally black for us. We aren’t able to communicate with Reza or his family in Tehran. And so it must be just, truly, he must be feeling very helpless right now.”

CBS News spoke to Joe Bennett, the son of British prisoners Lindsay and Craig Foreman, who were also being held at Evin Prison. Bennett is able to have daily phone calls with his mother, who, earlier this week, reported explosions so close to the prison that windows were blown out. As of Friday, she remained at the prison and able to make her daily calls.

Who are Reza Valizadeh and Kamran Hekmati?


Valizadeh became a U.S. citizen in 2022 after working for the U.S. government-funded broadcaster Radio Farda, the Persian branch of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty.

He believed he had received assurances that it was safe for him to return to Iran, where most of his family lives, but days after arriving in Tehran in 2024 for a visit, he was detained by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and taken to Evin Prison.

He spent weeks under intense interrogation and in isolation, and Iranian officials did not publicly acknowledge his arrest for almost two months. In December 2024, Valizadeh was sentenced to 10 years in prison after being charged with “collaborating with a hostile government,” according to a petition filed in January by his attorney with the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention.

Since then, his family says Valizadeh, who has asthma, has suffered from coughing fits and been denied medications.

“As somebody who’s represented Americans wrongfully detained in the past, this is a very, highly unusual situation where our ability to advocate for Reza obviously is muted right now with the military strikes,” Fayhee told CBS News. “It’s difficult to imagine what a lawyer can do for Reza, other than to ask the U.S. and the Israelis to exercise extreme caution in the area around Evin Prison. And Reza is not the only American citizen within the walls of Evin.”

Hekmati, who lives in Long Island and runs a jewelry business in New York City, immigrated to the U.S. from Iran after the Iranian Revolution in 1979, his advocates from the nonprofit Global Reach, which works to secure the release of Americans wrongfully held abroad, say.

He had traveled to Iran a number of times because of an urgent family matter, but was prevented from leaving in May last year and eventually arrested in July. He was then charged under a law that prohibits Iranian citizens from visiting Israel within a decade of entering Iran, his advocates say, though they say he hadn’t been to Israel for 13 years. He was later sentenced on an additional charge of meeting with agents of Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency.

Iran’s history of wrongful detentions


The day before the U.S. and Israel launched their strikes on Iran, Secretary of State Marco Rubio designated Iran as the first ever State Sponsor of Wrongful Detention. The designation was created last fall, after President Trump issued an Executive Order to Protect U.S. Nationals from Wrongful Detention Abroad.

“When the Iranian regime seized power 47 years ago, Ayatollah Khomeini consolidated his control of power by endorsing the hostage taking of U.S. embassy staff,” Rubio said in a statement at the time. “For decades, Iran has continued to cruelly detain innocent Americans, as well as citizens of other nations, to use as political leverage against other states. This abhorrent practice must end.”

Valideza’s lawyer says U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff and President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner went into the most recent negotiations with Iran, before the war started, with Valideza’s name on a list.

“The military strikes have interrupted what I hoped was a conversation about Reza. I will say this: If the Iranians are looking for an off-ramp … that’s to release American citizens that are being held, including Reza, including Kamran Hekmati,” Fayhee said.

Ramsay, the retired FBI assistant director, also suggested the American prisoners could present a potential diplomatic solution for the conflict.

“We hear a lot of different reasons as to why this war has started and what the end goals are. Things like no more enrichment of nuclear material, no more ballistic missiles, no use of proxies. We want a fourth thing added to that, and that is Iran ceases and desists all hostage diplomacy,” Ramsay told CBS News.

Ramsay said there also could be other options to get the detainees home.

“I have 30-plus years in the federal government behind me, and had you asked me … maybe last year or the year before, was things like a rescue operation possible for this? And I would have told you no. But when we look at what this administration did in Venezuela with Maduro, I would say everything’s on the table.”

A State Department spokesperson told CBS News on Friday that it was aware of reports of Americans detained in Iran prior to February 27, and that it seeks to provide consular support. The spokesperson said Iran should immediately release all Americans detained in the country.

“President Trump has been clear that he wants every American wrongfully detained to be returned home safe and sound, and that there will be dire consequences for regimes who treat Americans as political pawns,” White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly said in a statement to CBS News on Friday.
