As men&#8217;s clothing who play football is kind of&#8230; according to Islam, it should be kept out of the sight of women.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">&#8220;Of course, since the denial should not be a reason for people to hate religion, we can take measures to ensure that women go to the stadium and do not fall into sin,&#8221; Rahbar added. &#8220;Last year, for example, in the city of Isfahan, there was a lot of sensitivity about women&#8217;s cycling and the topic became a hot debate. In the Friday prayers, while discussing the religious forms of pedaling by women in the street in front of the eyes of nonrelatives, we proposed to specify a park for women, where women can ride bicycles and, thank God, they would not become prone to guilt. I stress that we should avoid the situation where people, especially the youth, are going to despise Islam and the clergy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Admitting to the regime&#8217;s serious concerns, Rahbar said: &#8220;Some people believe that there is a gap between the people and the clergy. Weakening this relationship and changing the way people look at the clergy has nothing to do with these issues. People nag the clergy because of the pressure that is caused by inflation and problems such as unemployment and&#8230; Many times, people in the streets or shops stopped me and protested against the situation, and sometimes they even got angry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\">Tehran-backed Militants Have Violated Truce, Yemen Says<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"yemen-houthi-clashes\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-257498 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/yemen-houthi-clashes-300x170.webp\" alt=\"yemen-houthi-clashes\" width=\"300\" height=\"170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/yemen-houthi-clashes-300x170.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/yemen-houthi-clashes-150x85.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/yemen-houthi-clashes.webp 690w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">On Sunday evening, the Yemeni National Army Media Center said in a statement that Iranian regime-backed Houthi militias have violated the ceasefire on several occasions on the first day of the UN-blessed truce.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The statement suggests: &#8220;The Houthis violated the ceasefire on various fronts, including the provinces of Al-Hudaidah, Hajjah, Taiz, Al-Jawf, and Marib.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The Yemeni National Army Information Center has recorded more than 44 ceasefire violations by Houthi militants, which included Houthi attacks on governmental, military, and civilian properties with Katyusha artillery and missiles as well as sending manpower and equipment to various fronts.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify\">Republicans Want to Bar Biden Admin From Lifting Sanctions on Iran-sponsored Terrorists<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"washington-freebeacon-logo\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-257222 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/washington-freebeacon-logo-300x116.png\" alt=\"washington-freebeacon-logo\" width=\"300\" height=\"116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/washington-freebeacon-logo-300x116.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/washington-freebeacon-logo-150x58.png 150w, https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/washington-freebeacon-logo.png 449w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Congressional Republicans are spearheading a legislative effort to bar the Biden administration from lifting terrorism sanctions on Iran&#8217;s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) as part of a new nuclear agreement with Tehran, according to a copy of a new bill obtained exclusively by the\u00a0<em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Reps.
