Newspapers on Monday continued to cover the recent protest rallies and riots across Iran. The protests, which started in the religious cities of Mashhad and Qom on Thursday, mainly focused on economic grievances, particularly the surge in prices and the financial corruption of certain state bodies.
However, the ensuing protest rallies in other cities on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday involved more political slogans. Iranian authorities and analysts believe foreign and anti-Iran media and officials are trying to make the demonstrations political and provoke people to chant anti-Establishment slogans.
What follows are the way Iranian papers covered the protest rallies on Monday:
