Iran is the Kaaba of the hopes and dreams of the resistance front.

Ali Shoeib stated, “We need to reach a larger audience worldwide and in the region, particularly Arab speakers, to convey the message of resistance.”

Ali Shoeib, who came to Iran to participate in the 2nd Sobh International Media Event, reviewed the performance of Iranian media in covering the events in Gaza and emphasized the importance of Iranian media providing information in Arabic said, “Language difference is an important factor, and Iranian media should pay special attention to this issue. We are currently witnessing the war between Palestine and Israel, and the Arabic language plays an essential role in it. Therefore, in my opinion, Iranian media should focus on spreading their news in Arabic to provide better information at the global level.” He added, “Of course, the powerful Arabic-language media is run by Iran, but more media should work towards spreading the message of resistance even further because there are still many gaps in telling the truth.”

He stressed the need to inform the global audience and added, “We should be careful that the audience of Persian language channels is mostly Iranians, and we need to reach out to a wider audience in the world and the region, especially those who speak Arabic, to hear the message of resistance. Let us not forget that all the hopes and dreams of the resistance front are seen in the Islamic Republic, and they have their eyes on Iran.”

He continued, “In my opinion, with the media powers of the Islamic Republic, this is possible, and the message of the Palestinian people can be made global. I would also like to thank the efforts of the PressTV network, which has done an exemplary job of informing the public from the very first days of the war.”

Referring to the extensive news censorship by the Zionist regime and its media supporters, Ali Shoeib said, “As you know, the Israelis have taken control of a significant part of the world’s media, and they are trying to create news censorship and stand against the publication of the truth. We can see an example of this issue in the martyrdom of journalists who are currently present in the occupied territories to cover the news. Despite these dangers, journalists on the resistance front continue to work with determination.”

Ali Shoeib also highlighted the importance of holding media events such as the Sobh festival, saying, “The first advantage of holding such an event is the opportunity to meet a large number of journalists and media personnel from all over the world. In these meetings, they can share their news and gain an understanding of the current situation in Palestine. Moreover, many side activities are planned during the festival, which can help spread the message of the Palestinian people.”

The 2nd Sobh International Media Festival, with Mohsen Yazdi as the festival director, will be held from May 19–21 in three sections: “Main,” “IRIB World Service,” and “Palestine Special.”
