IFP has taken a look at the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Saturday, December 1, 2018, and picked headlines from 15 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.
Several papers today covered the G20 Summit in Argentina, where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was isolated more than ever over his role in the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Also a top story was the Syrian air defence’s success in intercepting Israeli missiles during a recent aggression on southern Damascus. Iranian media hailed the Syrian army for doing it even without the Russian missile defence system S-300.
Remarks by Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi about the Europeans’ failure to implement the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), a payment mechanism aimed at facilitating trade with Tehran in the face of US sanctions, also received great coverage.
The above issues, as well as many more, are highlighted in the following headlines and top stories:
