All Iran newspapers today covered the remarks made by Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, in a meeting with Army commanders and personnel.

President Hassan Rouhani’s visit to flood-hit areas and his promise to expedite the efforts to help resolve people’s problems also received great coverage.

Another top story was the championship of Tehran giant Persepolis FC in Iran Pro League, which was celebrated by over 80,000 spectators in Azadi Stadium in Tehran on Wednesday evening.
