He continued: By targeting social solidarity, community peace and public trust, these news are aimed at promoting fake narratives about Iran, and the media, which by disappointing the people by showing the black face of the country, encourage them not to try to improve. The situation and distortion of the news are the successes of the country and by repeating these news in various formats and involving emotions, they will spread the publication of these news, they will cause division and disappointment.
