The Russian Jewish Congress is intensifying efforts to help 13 Iranian Jews who may soon be tried in Tehran on charges that they spied for Israel and the United States. The RJC wants to send a delegation to Tehran that would include the group’s president, Vladimir Goussinsky, and Moscow Chief Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, but the Iranian Embassy in Moscow has not yet issued entry visas for them.
