A look at Iranian newspaper headlines across the country on September 9

Iranian newspaper headlines across the country on September 9

Most Iranian newspapers on Tuesday led on the successful surgery Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Ali Khamenei underwent in Tehran the day before. Images of senior state officials paying bedside visits to him were splashed across their front pages. Comments by Iran’s deputy foreign minister on nuclear talks also generated headlines. “We are having good interactions with the Americans at the negotiating table,” one headline read. Also drawing attention were the interior minister’s remarks that Iranian security forces are well aware of plots by IS to mount attacks on regional countries, including Iran, and that Tehran is ready to nip any such scheme in the bud. And finally, news about the meetings the visiting Danish foreign minister had in Tehran with some senior officials, including the chairman of the Expediency Council, was on the front pages of some dailies.

 

Ebtekar dedicated its front-page headline to the use of anti-Internet filtering software and said based on the stats released by the Center for Research at the Ministry of Youth and Sports, 69 percent of Iranian youth use software to bypass filtering.

Ebtekar: “A Tangled Knot in Kabul” is another headline the daily carries, implying that talks between Afghanistan’s rival presidential candidates still remain inconclusive.

Ebtekar: “A bizarre about-face by Ahmadinejad on the State Expediency Council” is the headline of a piece by the newspaper to shed light on a shift of stance by the former president toward the council. In light of the fact that the former president is likely to run for parliament, the daily argues, Ahmadinejad, who used to boycott the meetings of the council, attends them regularly to quell accusations that he is arrogant and does not pay attention to the viewpoints of others.

Ebtekar: “Bedside visit to the Supreme Leader by senior statesmen of the establishment” is the title of a story which covers the successful surgery the Leader underwent on September 8 and the satisfaction his medical team expressed with the operation.
