IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Wednesday and picked headlines from 37 them. The selected headlines show how Iranian newspapers continued covering the death of Ayatollah Rafsanjani in their front pages one day after the funeral ceremony.

Death of Ayatollah Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, the Chairman of Iran’s Expediency Council, a former president and parliament speaker, and the country’s second-in-command during the eight-year war with Iraq in the 1980s, shocked Iran and the world on Sunday evening.

A pillar of Islamic Revolution and a key figure in establishment of Islamic Republic, Ayatollah Rafsanjani was widely known as a moderate figure and a companion of Imam Khomeini and Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

Newspapers on Monday widely covered his demise, with many of them focusing on Ayatollah Khamenei’s message of condolence.

After the attendance of at least 2.5 million Iranians in the funeral service on Tuesday, newspapers on Wednesday continued to dedicate their headlines to the former president’s demise and the glorious funeral.
