In such circumstances, proposals such as “tiered internet” or “so-called pro internet” appear not only to fall short of meeting this expectation, but also to constitute a breach of it—laying the groundwork for discontent among broad segments of the public.2026-04-23T09:01:11+03:30news/312198/Free-and-equal-access-to-internet-is-a-test-of-people-centered-governanceTehran book fair to be held online this yearnews/312114/Tehran-book-fair-to-be-held-online-this-yearThe 37th Tehran International Book Fair will be held online due to the specific conditions this year as a result of the war conditions.2026-04-22T21:07:29+03:30news/312114/Tehran-book-fair-to-be-held-online-this-yearFrom Gaza’s Tunnels to Lego Animations: A Challenge to Global Media Dominancenews/311963/From-Gaza’s-Tunnels-to-Lego-Animations-A-Challenge-to-Global-Media-DominanceNOURNEWS – Examining the parallels between the cultural initiatives of Iranian youth and the media innovations of Gaza’s defenders reveals a shared logic: what has recently emerged in Iran in the form of Lego-style animations is an extension of the same approach that appeared in the media activities of the resistance during Israel’s assault on Gaza. Both are responses to a stark reality, the existence of a dominant media system that amplifies certain parts of the truth while concealing others. Both, by drawing on creativity and the capacities of social media, seek to correct this imbalance.2026-04-22T11:14:49+03:30news/311963/From-Gaza’s-Tunnels-to-Lego-Animations-A-Challenge-to-Global-Media-DominanceFamilies of Minab school martyrs urge Pope to be voice of their voiceless childrennews/311421/Families-of-Minab-school-martyrs-urge-Pope-to-be-voice-of-their-voiceless-childrenFamilies of children, who were martyred in the US bombing of an elementary school in the southern Iranian city of Minab, have expressed their appreciation for the pacifist stances of the head of the Roman Catholic church, urging Pope Leo XIV to be the voice of their voiceless children.2026-04-19T22:04:17+03:30news/311421/Families-of-Minab-school-martyrs-urge-Pope-to-be-voice-of-their-voiceless-childrenDams Running on Half Capacity as Water Concerns Deepennews/311439/Dams-Running-on-Half-Capacity-as-Water-Concerns-DeepenNOURNEWS – The latest statistics indicate that despite a relative increase in water volumes, only 57% of the country’s dam capacity is filled, while the gap between inflows and outflows is heightening concerns over the continuation of water scarcity.2026-04-19T00:03:23+03:30news/311439/Dams-Running-on-Half-Capacity-as-Water-Concerns-DeepenYouth ‘Launchers’ Carrying the Message of Victory in Warnews/311116/Youth-‘Launchers’-Carrying-the-Message-of-Victory-in-WarNOURNEWS – Lego animations produced by young Iranians are a phenomenon that may appear simple and entertaining at first glance, yet at deeper layers reveal signs of a media and cultural transformation.

It succeeded in adequately supplying markets and essential consumer goods, keeping the country entirely removed from the risk of shortages, let alone famine. This managerial capacity and resilience stand among the administration’s distinguishing features, and indeed its points of pride during this period.2026-04-09T13:45:23+03:30news/308818/What-Score-Does-the-Government-Deserve-in-Managing-Wartime-ConditionsFormation of Human Chains Around the Country’s Power Plants and Bridgesnews/308435/Formation-of-Human-Chains-Around-the-Country’s-Power-Plants-and-BridgesSimultaneous with the inflammatory rhetoric of the criminal President of the United States, honorable Iranian citizens gathered on bridges and in front of the country’s power plants.
