JAVAN
in a news report quotes Mohammad Reza Bahonar, the secretary general of the Islamic Society of Engineers (ISE), as saying from time to time issues such as announcing the list of major economic corrupt people are raised and the list is exchanged between the heads of three branches of power and we “see no result”. He added fight against economic corruption has turned into a propaganda move and will not resolve any of the country’s problems. Bahonar added the waste of public property was controlled to an extent by implementation of the subsidy reform plan.

TEHRAN-E EMROOZ in a news story says walking and breathing is difficult in the streets of Ilam without mask and the city is buried under a thick blanket of dust. Iran’s Environmental Protection Organization believes that the solution to dust storms is drawing up plans to make the Iraqi farmers aware of the measures they can take to prevent dust storms from happening, although the organization does not exactly know the main sources of these dust storms. The writer also says dust storms in Ilam began in the Iranian calendar month of Day (which started December 22) and are likely to continue till the Iranian calendar month of Shahrivar (which starts August 23). The writer also says we cannot place any hope in the cooperation of the Iraqi and Syrian governments in this regard since a delegation of Iraqi officials that came to Iran last year announced that controlling dust storms is not on their countries’ agenda
