Kylie Moore-Gilbert, a recently freed British-Australian prisoner in Iran was detained after authorities there found her partner was an Israeli citizen

Kylie Moore-Gilbert, a specialist in Middle East politics at the University of Melbourne, was released from prison in exchange for three Iranians who had been detained abroad, Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB reported.

The prisoner exchange deal - which Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Thursday repeatedly declined to comment on - also involved high-level negotiations with the Thailand government, the report said.

She was detained again? Or is this just poorly worded?

They just found after 2yrs? With Iran’s intelligence. Yeah right 🤨 Britain and Australia just got bumped on an international prison swap. Total incompetence. Really feeling for Kylie and her family. 🙏🏻

She was actually a Mossad spy.

She was definitely a spy. They don’t do this kind of deals for normal people.

Why do they go to Iran? It is not a safe place.

Flaccid Iranian entity is too cowardly to stand up to its enemies, so it takes it out on women. The sooner it’s gone the better for the region.

There must be so much more to this story than what we’ve been told so far. It seems strange to me to see her released from an Iranian jail wearing a liberal application of makeup.

This is some Homeland shit right there

Lol 🙄 its tough to mind that

This clown went to IRAN for the sole purpose of spying for Israel. She should be have to stay in prison in Iran.

Why do people suck so much at using masks Oh right it's the same people who can't figure out the turn signal
