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.
