A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on November 4

Newspapers today widely covered the comments made by the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei about the failure of US policies towards Iran in the past four decades.

The top story, however, was the re-imposition of the US sanctions on Iran and the meme the US president tweeted about it, which sparked widespread reactions on social media.

The first leg of the final match of AFC Champions League between Iran’s Persepolis and Japan’s Kashima Antlers, which ended in a 2-0 defeat for the Iranian side, also received great coverage. Several particularly covered the broadcast of the match for Iranian schoolchildren across the country, which was realized after a rare decision by the Education Ministry.

The above issues, as well as many more, are highlighted in the following headlines and top stories:
