A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on June 29

Newspapers today mainly covered the Islamic Republic’s reaction to a US warning against Syria over its alleged preparations for a chemical attack.

A number of newspapers also reacted to US claims about Syria by reminding Washington of its hypocrisy over Iraq’s chemical attack on Iran’s Sardasht as well as George W. Bush’s false claims about Iraq’s possession of Weapons of Mass Destruction.

Another top story today was the Achaemenid tablets, the Iranian cultural heritage, kept in the US. The US Supreme Court is going to decide whether the American victims of a suicide bombing can take the artefacts as compensation.

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