Almost all Iranian newspapers dedicated their front pages to the issue of Brexit and its repercussions. In a separate article, IFP will cover the numerous headlines and editorials which focused on the issue.
The recent bus crash in Fars province, which killed several soldiers, remained a top story today. Conservative media are using the incident to criticize the governments transportation policies, and some reformist ones are renewing their call for major changes in military service policies.
Many newspapers also covered President Hassan Rouhanis ongoing actions against the issues of huge salaries paid to certain executives.
Another top story was a recent Shanghai Cooperation Organization [SCO] Summit in Tashkent and the issue of Irans accession to the body.
Below, you can find these stories as well as a number of others appearing on front pages of Iranian newspapers on Saturday.
