A look at Iranian newspaper front pages on Nov. 1

IFP has taken a look at the front pages of newspapers on Sunday and picked headlines from 23 of them. IFP has simply translated the headlines and does not vouch for their accuracy.

A fourth hearing in the corruption trial of Babak Zanjani and his brazen claims on repayment of the money he’s been accused of siphoning off dominated the front pages of Iranian newspapers on Sunday. Also in the news were comments by a former parliament speaker who lashed out at hardliners for claiming that the country’s nuclear negotiators have violated the red lines set by the Supreme Leader.   

 

Ettela’at: “Mudslinging is the country’s most serious abnormal behavior,” said a deputy Judiciary chief.

Mohammad Bagher Olfat further said that no country treats its greats the way Iran does.

He also said that we need to close the loopholes that might be used by those who seek to make a career out of conditions that arise in the post-sanctions era.

Ettela’at: The first vice-president has said that the government has made extensive planning for the post-sanctions era.  

Ettela’at: Iran is to draw up a document on the global fight against particles, said Masoumeh Ebtekar, the director of the Environment Protection Organization.

She also blamed negligence [by the previous government] over the years for the [formation of polluting] particles centers inside Iran.

Ettela’at: UN chief Ban Ki-moon has said that only the Syrian people should decide on the future of Assad.

The United Nations has announced that the Damascus government and the Syrian opposition will also attend the next rounds of talks over Syria.

Ettela’at: Hardliners and extremists inside Iran have dealt a blow to the country, said Ali Akbar Nategh Nouri [a former parliament speaker].

“The Supreme Leader set the red lines and said that the nuclear negotiating team respected those red lines. But a number of hardliners claim – based on no solid evidence – that red lines have not been respected and the Leader’s remarks have been ignored and that these people [Iran’s nuclear negotiators] should be put on trial,” he further said.

Ettela’at: Head of the Cancer Research Center of Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences Mohammad Esmail Akbari has said that sausage and lunch meat are the primary cancer risk factor in the country.

He also said that [satellite] jamming signals are very dangerous.

Ettela’at: ISIS claims it has brought down a Russian passenger plane in Sinai, Egypt.

ISIS terrorists in Egypt have said that the Russian plane was targeted in response to airstrikes by Russian fighter jets on Syria.

All 224 people on board the plane have been killed.
