Fath (Persian: فتح, lit. 'The Conquest') was a Persian-language daily newspaper published in Tehran, Iran.

History

Fath was published by the same team of journalists that published Khordad, led by Yadollah Eslami. While cracking down on reformist publications, Iran banned Fath in April 2000; saying it was publishing articles that "disparaged Islam and the religious elements of the Islamic revolution."
