Iran-US war latest: Iranian president says US has no respect for international law and hits out at ‘bully’ Trump

Masoud Pezeshkian showed images of girls at the school in Minab, dozens of whom were killed in a strike on the first day of the war

What the coverage shows

All four outlets focus on Masoud Pezeshkian’s UN General Assembly speech, with France 24 and BBC News keeping the coverage very broad and descriptive. The Guardian US and The Independent both foreground his attack on Trump, but the Guardian also highlights his stated willingness to talk, while The Independent alone mentions him showing images of girls killed in a strike.
