The Islamic Republic of Iran News Network (IRINN), (In Persian: شبکه خبر جمهوری اسلامی ایران), is an Iranian news channel, part of Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting corporation, headquartered in the Jame Jam Park in Tehran, Iran. The main programs are political, but sports, science and medical news programs also exist. Its language is mainly in Persian; Although, in the early years of its launch, programs in English and Arabic were also broadcast on this network. [1]
From August 2022, with the launch of the second channel of the IRINN network for live broadcasting of news events, various events in Iran and the world will also be broadcast live on this channel for the audience.
On June 22, 2021, the US department of justice seized 33 Iranian websites, which they claimed were "spreading disinformation".[2] [3] A statement by IRINN said, the move appeared to be part of a larger-scale crackdown by the U.S. on news websites linked to the “Axis of Resistance”.[4] [5] [6]
During the 2022 Iran Protests, a Hacktivist group called "Edalaat-e-Ali" hacked the News Network, targeting Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and showing 4 women who were victims of allegedly not covering their hair, especially Mahsa Amini, who were featured in the hacked footage scene during the news bulletin.[7]
