Weekly Roundup: Nov.30th – Dec.7th

November 30th - December 7th 2018


Welcome to the weekend.

The government has told the world this week that if Iran cannot export oil from the Persian Gulf, then no one can. The statement comes as what appears to be a vice-like grip on Iran’s economy places yet more pressure on the country’s officials.

Suicide bombings in Iran are rare, but one rocked the city of Chabahar on Thursday killing at least three people and injuring twenty-four others. Chabahar has a predominantly Sunni Muslim population. Several groups have come forward to claim responsibility for the attack, though these claims have not been verified.

Our Persian Treat this week is the perfect Winter dish – Ash Reshteh. For more warming recipes, follow @KayhanLife across social.

Ba Dorood,
