Rouhani’s Re-Election in Iranian Newspaper Front Pages

President Hassan Rouhani’s victory in Iran’s May 19 presidential elections was widely covered today. Both moderate and conservative media highlighted the re-election in their front pages.

However, conservative papers focused more on a statement released by the Leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, in which the president was advised to fight corruption and resolve the economic woes in his four-year term.

Another top story today was US President Donald Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia, and the missile strikes by Yemeni forces on Riyadh ahead of the trip.

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