Lawsuit: U.S. Shared Iranians' Asylum Information With Iran

A lawsuit filed July 7 alleges the Trump administration gave Iran's government asylum applications — the paperwork people file to escape their home country. The complaint says U.S. immigration officials shared the names, views, and reasons of hundreds of Iranians seeking safety. An Iranian official confirmed the arrangement, court filings show. Lawyers say the move broke federal rules protecting these sensitive documents.
