Fath (Persian: فتح, lit. 'The Conquest') was a Persian-language daily newspaper published in Iran.
History
Fath was published by virtually the same team of journalists that published Khordad, led by Yadollah Eslami.[1] It was banned in April 2000 for publishing articles which "disparaged Islam and the religious elements of the Islamic revolution."[2][3]
