Five members of the Iranian women's soccer team who sought asylum in Australia after the team's loss to the Philippines in the Women's Asia Cup will be granted humanitarian visas.

Last week, the Iranian team stood silent during the national anthem before the first match of the tournament, a move many feared will be punished by the Iranian regime. A sports journalist for Iranian national TV told CNN that the families of three of the five players who are now safe with police had been threatened and says it's not clear where at least two other players are after they left the team hotel. On Truth Social, President Trump said that Australia's prime minister will ensure the players' safety and had also offered them asylum in the U.S.
