A Look at Iranian Newspaper Front Pages on October 3

The top story in today’s newspapers was the tragic deaths of nearly 60 people in Las Vegas shooting, the deadliest such incident in the US history.

Newspapers also covered the remarks made by a number of Iranian lawmakers who raised the possibility of changing Iran’s system of government to a parliamentary one if OK’d by the Leader. The MPs say they may write a letter to Ayatollah Khamenei, asking him to call for a revision in the Constitution.

A meeting between the top military chiefs of Iran and Turkey in Tehran and their talks on the Iraqi Kurdistan were also highlighted in today’s papers.

Several papers also reported that German manager Winfried Schäfer has been appointed the new head coach of Tehran football giants Esteghlal.

Reformist media also reported that seven reformist politicians have been sentenced to one-year prison terms and a ban on political activities following their imprisonment.
