The bus was carrying 45 mostly junior high school students from Bandar Abbas to the city of Shiraz in Fars Province, according to Nader Rahmani, a senior traffic police official.

Hassan Nouri, an emergency official, told ISNA that seven schoolgirls, a female instructor, and a male assistant driver have lost their lives so far.

Nouri said two of those injured have lost one of their organs. Four others also sustained spinal cord injuries.

Five others are under surgery, he added.

The girls were planning to attend a national conference of talented students in the city of Shiraz.

According to officials, initial investigations indicate the crash was caused by the exhaustion and sleepiness of the bus driver, who is now under arrest.

Member of Parliament Fatemeh Saeidi also urged the Education Ministry to devise regulations for student trips as soon as possible in an effort to prevent such tragic incidents from happening again.

Photos retrieved from news agencies indicate that dozens of people in Darab have queued up to donate their blood for the injured schoolgirls.

In his Thursday message, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi expressed sympathy with the crisis-hit people and bereaved families of the victims of Harvey storm.

Hurricane Harvey has so far caused at least 39 (and counting) confirmed deaths; 1 in Guyana, and 38 in the United States. Catastrophic inland flooding is ongoing in the Greater Houston metropolitan area.

Harvey has been described as the worst disaster in Texas history, and the recovery is expected to take many years.

Preliminary estimates of economic losses range from $10 billion to $160 billion, with a large portion of losses sustained by uninsured homeowners.

No Need to Inspect Iran’s Military Sites: IAEA

Iran Sees ‘Positive Outlook’ for Ties with IAEA after Latest Report

While the United States was pushing the UN nuclear inspectors to check military sites in Iran to verify it is not breaching its nuclear deal with world powers, the IAEA declared on Thursday that the Islamic Republic is living up to its JCPOA commitments.

The IAEA has the authority to request access to facilities in Iran, including military ones, if there are new and credible indications of banned nuclear activities there, Reuters quoted officials from the agency and signatories to the deal as saying.

But they said Washington has not provided such indications to back up its pressure on the IAEA to make such a request.

“We’re not going to visit a military site like Parchin just to send a political signal,” an IAEA official said.

IAEA Director-General Yukiya Amano frequently describes his Vienna-based agency as a technical rather than a political one, underscoring the need for its work to be based on facts alone.

 

IAEA Once Again Confirms Iran’s Compliance with JCPOA

The latest IAEA report once again confirms that Iran has remained loyal to its commitments as per the 2015 deal with world powers.

The report was the third since the January inauguration of US President Donald Trump, who has called the 2015 agreement between six major powers and Iran, reached under his predecessor Barack Obama, “the worst deal ever negotiated” and voiced suspicions Tehran is not fully complying with its terms.

Iran’s stock of low-enriched uranium as of Aug. 21 was 88.4 kg (194.89 pounds), well below a 202.8-kg limit, and the level of enrichment did not exceed a 3.67 percent cap, according to the confidential report sent to IAEA member states and seen by Reuters.

Iran’s stock of so-called heavy water stood at 111 tonnes, below a 130-tonne limit agreed by the parties to the deal.

The UN watchdog’s report said Iran restarted production of heavy water on June 17 after a maintenance shut-down of the plant which started on April 27.

Iran has slightly breached its heavy water limit on two occasions before quickly shipping some amounts to Oman to get below the threshold, Reuters reported.

Asked about when Iran would go above 130 tonnes from the current stock and at a current rate of production that implies a maximum annual output of 20 tonnes, a senior diplomat said it would take Tehran around one year.

Iran’s Thursday match with South Korea, which ended with a 0-0 draw, was the 12th match in a row that the Iranian cheetahs passed with a clean sheet.

The record was praised by the official Twitter account of FIFA World Cup.

Iran Sets New Record in FIFA World Cup QualifiersBefore playing against South Korea in Seoul, Iran had already qualified for 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. However, the Iranian players sought to show their best and keep their clean sheet record in a match that was very crucial to Koreans.

Iran managed to hold South Korea even though its midfielder Saeid Ezzatollahi received a red card in the middle of the game.

Today, the Defense Ministry supplies the needs of the country’s armed forces in all areas, Brigadier General Amir Hatami told the IRIB.

“As we know, many instabilities in the region happen in places where countries are facing weakness,” he added. “Hence, in order to prevent wars, the issue of exporting military equipment is on our agenda.

“Here, our objective is different from that of colonialist countries (because) we do it for establishing stability in the region.”

The general also highlighted the importance of defense diplomacy in a region that is suffering from insecurity and terrorism.

He went on to say that Iran will continue its advisory support for the Resistance Front.

In the past few years, Iran has provided advisory support for Syria and Iraq in their fight against foreign-back terrorist groups like Daesh (ISIL or ISIS).

Iranian, Turkish Presidents Call for Enhanced Regional Cooperation

In his Thursday phone conversation with Erdogan, President Rouhani stressed that his administration is determined to expand the Islamic Republic’s close and friendly ties with Turkey.

The Iranian president welcomed the growing interactions between Tehran and Ankara in recent months, saying the two neighbours can witness major developments in their bilateral ties by virtue of the formation of High Council of Iran-Turkey Cooperation.

He further underlined the necessity of reinforcing mutual cooperation and consultations to resolve regional problems, adding, “The currently sensitive situation in the Middle East requires that both countries work together more than ever to establish stability and security in the region.”

Rouhani referred to certain separatist tendencies in the Middle East and problems created in the Persian Gulf region, and stressed that such issues are detrimental to regional peace and stability.

Full security has not been established in Iraq and Syria yet, the Iranian president noted, adding that Tehran and Ankara, as two regional superpowers, should contribute to regional peace and stability more than ever.

He further congratulated the Turkish nation and government on Eid Al-Adha, and expressed regret that not all nations in the region can benefit from the blessings of the Muslim Sacrifice Feast due to the ongoing instability and conflict in certain regional states.

Rouhani also referred to the recent developments in Myanmar and the suffering of Rohingya Muslims there, saying, “The Islamic Republic of Iran rejects and strongly condemns oppression against Muslims anywhere in the world.”

The Turkish president, for his part, offered his congratulations to Rouhani on Eid Al-Adha and the beginning of his second term in office.

“I’m confident that mutual cooperation between Iran and Turkey will continue better than ever during President Rouhani’s second term,” he noted.

He further hailed as positive the formation of the High Council of Iran-Turkey Cooperation as well as the reciprocal meetings between the two countries’ officials, and said, “Turkey is resolved to develop its political and economic relations with Iran.”

He also expressed regret over the oppression against Muslim people in Myanmar, and highlighted the need for Tehran-Ankara solidarity in resolving regional issues.

“Strengthening and cementing Iran-Turkey cooperation and solidarity is very crucial and valuable to the resolution of regional problems,” he added.

The Turkish president is going to pay an official visit to Tehran in the near future.

Production of Cancer Prevention Syrup Begins in Central Iran

By
IFP Editorial Staff
-

Fariborz Moattar, a researcher at the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, declared that the production of ‘Odorata syrup’, a drug that can prevent cancer, has started in Isfahan, central Iran.

According to a Farsi report by Mehr News Agency, he said the syrup contains Viola odorata as one of its main ingredients and thus can be effective in preventing the recurrence of cancer in those patients who have undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

Moattar added the syrup minimizes the side-effects even for those cancer sufferers who are receiving chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

The Isfahan-based university researcher noted that those individuals who are hereditarily susceptible to contracting cancer and patients suffering from the disease, will acquire immunity to it by taking the drug every day for a year.

He said since Viola odorata is a rare and expensive plant, it cannot be brewed and used as herbal tea.

Viola odorata contains cyclolide and thus has anticancer properties, he added.

Moattar went on to say that it destroys cancer cells and prevents the spread of the disease to healthy cells.

Iran’s Larijani Congratulates Speakers of Muslim States on Eid Al-Adha

In a message issued on Thursday, Larijani felicitated his opposite numbers on the occasion and said, “Islam teaches us that one of the main goals and philosophies of the Hajj pilgrimage is building understanding and consolidating the brotherhood among Muslims.”

He further pointed to the crises facing the Muslim world and said they can be resolved through joint efforts by Islamic countries.

Larijani also said the Iranian parliament supports any measure to strengthen the spirit of Islamic brotherhood and solidarity among Muslim countries.

In the Islamic calendar, Eid al-Adha occurs on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah and is also the third day of the Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca.

For Muslims, Eid al-Adha commemorates the day when Prophet Abraham was going to sacrifice his son but was instructed by God to offer an animal instead. Eid al-Adha in Arabic literally means “festival of the sacrifice”.
