Tehran (IP) - Elaborating on the third edition of the International 'Sobh' Festival on Saturday, the Deputy Chairman of Press TV said the event will be run in the next few days with two sections, the main section and the special sect for Palestine.

Iran Press/Iran news: 'Sobh' Festival is an international level organized by the World Service of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) began in 2022, with "Media and New World Order" being its theme. 

Ehsan Kaveh said in a briefing session on Saturday about the festival programs that the event has tried to focus on different aspects of media and news, where an independent jury would judge each section for awarding the winners.

TV products including series, documentaries, and news reports, written works including podcasts and radio programs, social media content including videocasts, animation, weblogs, and news blogging are among the areas of competition in the Iranian international media festival. 

With regard to the special section allowed for Palestine, he said that considering what was going on in Gaza a special section was decided for Palestine to receive independent works including movies, video clips, short films, animations, illustrations, and news blogs. 

"If we categorize the resistance of the people of Gaza in the field of media, regardless of their tolerance and the blood that was shed [from them], it was these mobile phones that conveyed the correct and clear image of Gaza. Otherwise, the monopoly of news that is common in the mainstream media will lead to oppressive ignorance of some content, so citizens can also portray these events as reporters."

The Israeli regime launched such carnage in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, that it shocked the whole world, causing demonstrations against the Israeli regime from the US, the very supporter of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, to Europe, the allies of the US. 

Israel has so far massacred more than 44,000 people in Gaza a significant part of them women and children.
