A budding insurgency outside Iran

Concern is growing about Elnaz Rekabi, the 33-year-old Iranian athlete who competed in South Korea on Sunday without a mandatory hijab. On social media today, Rekabi said there was a problem climbing with the covering, apologized, and said she was returning to Iran. Now rights groups based abroad are raising the alarm about what might happen to her once she’s home. It comes amid ongoing protests by Iranian women and male allies, sparked by the death of police custody of Mahsa Amini. Amini was an Iranian Kurd, and that community has borne the brunt of the regime’s crackdown. Now some are fleeing across the border to Iraqi Kurdistan and joining armed opposition groups. Correspondent Nima Elbagir traveled there to learn more about this budding insurgency. Also on today's show: British MP Crispin Blunt, the first Conservative Member of Parliament to call for new Prime Minister Liz Truss' ouster; author Anand Giridharadas; Gina Kim, executive producer of Rising Against Asian Hate: One Day in March.
