A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on January 6

The recent protests and riots in Iran and the widespread reactions to the developments remained the top story of all Iranian newspapers on Saturday.

Many papers particularly covered a recent UN Security Council meeting on the Iran protests, which was held at the request of the US, but turned into a tribune for the member states to express their support for the Iran nuclear deal and to call for avoiding interference in Iran’s domestic affairs.

The comments by Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami, the Friday prayers leader in Tehran, about the recent developments also received great coverage.

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