** IRAN DAILY

- US paying for Iraq’s sovereignty breach

The attack on Ain al-Asad Airbase serves as an inevitable consequence of the United States’ violations of Iraqi sovereignty. It should be viewed as a strong reaction from the Iraqi nation, expressing their discontent with American interference in their country’s affairs. While such attacks have occurred in the past, recent weeks witnessed the Americans attempting to assassinate several leading Iraqi figures and militia leaders, further enraging various Iraqi factions, tribes, and nomadic groups.

- Iran vows revenge for Israeli assassination of IRGC advisers in Syria

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has strongly condemned the assassination of five Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) advisers in an Israeli missile strike in Syria, saying such “cowardly” acts will not go unanswered. “Certainly, the continuation of such terrorist and criminal acts, which are indicative of the increasing failure and defeats of the illegitimate Zionist regime in achieving its malicious goals and the depth of its frustration with the fighters of the resistance front, will not go unanswered by the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Raisi said in a statement on Saturday, Press TV reported.

- Persepolis racing against the clock to name new manager

When Persepolis rounded off a sensational season with a domestic double back in May, thanks to a derby victory over arch-rival Esteghlal in the Hazfi Cup final, no one in the Reds camp thought the following campaign would be dominated by the biggest turmoil for the club in years. Less than eight months on, however, rumors and speculations keep swirling around the Persepolis bench as the club’s search for Yahya Golmohammadi’s successor drags on.

** TEHRAN TIMES

- The number of Gazans killed in the Israeli genocide sets a new record

- Raisi says Tehran will respond to Israel assassination of IRGC advisors

Iran’s President, Ebrahim Raisi, has assured that the Zionist regime’s “terrorist and criminal” attacks on Damascus, which martyred five Iranian military advisors, will not go unpunished. Raisi denounced the heinous assassination of five of Iran’s most eminent advisors by the criminal Zionist regime in a condolence letter on Saturday night.

- At least 10 terrorist teams involved in Kerman attack dismantled

Iran’s deputy interior minister announced on Sunday that intelligence forces have neutralized multiple terror teams since Daesh carried out an attack on the southeastern city of Kerman in early January.  "After the terrorist operation in Kerman, more than ten terrorist teams have been identified and dismantled by intelligence agencies until today,” Majid Mirahmadi told Iranian media.  He said intelligence and armed forces in the country are tirelessly working to make sure that an attack similar to what happened on January 3 will not happen again.

- Top US paper: Hamas strongly resilient

Israeli forces have killed 20% to 30% of Hamas’s fighters, US intelligence agencies estimate, a toll that falls short so far of the Zionist regime’s goal of destroying the group and shows its resilience after months of war that have laid swaths of the Gaza Strip to ruin, . The US estimate of the group’s casualties also found that Hamas still has enough munitions to continue striking Zionist cities and Israeli forces in Gaza for months, and that the group is attempting to reconstitute its police force in parts of Gaza City, according to U.S. officials cited by the Wall Street Journal.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has strongly condemned the assassination of five Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) advisors in an Israeli missile strike in Syria, saying such “cowardly” acts will not go unanswered. “Certainly, the continuation of such terrorist and criminal acts, which are indicative of the increasing failure and defeats of the illegitimate Zionist regime in achieving its malicious goals and the depth of its frustration with the fighters of the resistance front, will not go unanswered by the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Raisi said in a statement.
