Voting for the second round of the presidential election has begun in Iran. In it, two candidates are competing for the presidency, 69-year-old former health minister, reformist Masoud Pezeshkiyan, and 58-year-old representative of the Iranian leader in the Supreme National Security Council, conservative Saeed Jalili. In polls conducted on July 3, 49.5 percent of participants said they would vote for the reformist candidate Pezeshkian. 43.9 percent of voters preferred the conservative candidate Said Jalili.

According to the results of a public survey, after the tragedy in Crocus City Hall, 55-60 percent of Russians have a "clearly negative" opinion of migrant workers. Eight months ago, this figure was 40 percent.
