A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on May 9

9 May 2016 - 14:16


IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Monday and picked headlines from 20 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, made important remarks in a Sunday meeting with a group of Iranian police officials and officers. The Leader’s statements about security, particularly moral security, were widely covered by almost all Iranian media.

The newspapers on Monday also talked about a controversial clip from the TV show Elixir, aired by IRIB, in which the host publicly humiliated the guest. The producers later announced that it was just a show, and the host and the guest were both acting out a scene; however, the criticisms have remained severe.

Many newspapers, particularly reformist ones, have looked at the recent multiple assaults on Mir-Mahmoud Mousavi, a former Iranian diplomat and the brother of detained opposition leader Mir-Hossein Mousavi.

An ongoing conflict in Syria’s Khan Tuman, where a number of Iranian advisors, among others, were killed by terrorists also received much coverage.
