Newspapers today highlighted the ongoing clash between Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which seems to have been exacerbated by the recent phone conversation between Emir of Qatar and Iranian President.
Another top story was the epidemic of Crimean-Congo Fever, and the contradictory reports about the number of people diagnosed with it.
The issue of choosing female ministers in Rouhani’s new cabinet was also covered by two major reformist newspapers. Both papers say the president will probably introduce a couple of women to the Parliament as new ministers at his cabinet.
The above issues, as well as many more, are highlighted in the following headlines and top stories:
