Iranian actress Laleh Marzban won the Orizzonti Aw

Iranian actress Laleh Marzban won the Orizzonti Award for Best Actress at the 83rd Venice Film Festival for her role in Moragheb (Falling House), directed by Mohsen Gharaei, in which she played a young woman whose modeling dreams abroad are thwarted by her authoritarian father, a prison guard. She gave the performance without wearing a hijab, a notable choice for an Iranian production.

In an emotional acceptance speech, she dedicated the award to the “brave women of Iran,” saying they were enduring immense pressure and paying a heavy price for basic freedoms, and closed her remarks in Persian by saying she knew Iranians were going through the hardest days of their lives but that they must not lose hope.

By Kayhan Life Staff
Sept. 12 - Swedish lawmaker @arinkarapet has called on the Swedish government to lead a coordinated effort to tighten sanctions against the Islamic Republic by closing Tehran’s embassy and its Islamic in Stockholm and its Islamic center.

Speaking in an interview at the Swedish Parliament, Karapet said the scale of the Iranian regime’s crackdown on nationwide protests in January demanded a stronger response from Sweden and other democracies.

“We can close the embassy,” he said. “Second, we can close the Imam Ali Mosque, which the Swedish Security Service has pointed out as an internal threat to Sweden’s security.”

Swedish authorities said in 2025 that the Iranian regime had used the Imam Ali Islamic Center in Stockholm as a platform for espionage and activities targeting Sweden and members of the Iranian diaspora.

Karapet, who represents Stockholm and is affiliated with the nationalist Sweden Democrats, also urged Sweden to work through the European Union to tighten sanctions and confront the Islamic Republic’s attempts to use the Strait of Hormuz to exert pressure on the international community.

He accused the Iranian regime of carrying out a “massacre” during the Jan. 8-9 protests, and imposing an internet blackout to conceal the extent of the bloodshed. Karapet said more than 50,000 people had been killed, although the figure has not been independently verified. The Islamic Republic has acknowledged more than 3,000 deaths, while rights groups and medical sources have reported substantially higher tolls.

Karapet said, “The people of Iran need an alternative,” and described Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi as a central figure in the movement seeking to end the Islamic Republic.

DUBLIN, Sept 12 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald

DUBLIN, Sept 12 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday that Iran was probably responsible for an aerial attack on Saudi Arabia that shut down its East-West pipeline, one of the kingdom’s main routes for exporting crude while bypassing the Strait of Hormuz.

“I think they are, probably they are,” Trump told reporters in Dublin when asked if Iran was responsible for the attack on the vital oil conduit.

The U.S. president also said that he had spoken with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, whom he described as a “good friend.”

Trump added that Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis had called his admnistration and indicated they did not want the United States to become directly involved in the conflict.

“They would much prefer not having us involved, and they’re letting most ships go through. There’s just one country that they’re not too happy with, and we’ll get that straightened out,” Trump added.
