The National: Residents at an Iraqi camp for Iranian dissidents have started a hunger strike to protest against alleged human rights abuses inflicted by Iraqi security forces this week, amid fears that the Iranian regime’s influence is growing in the Iraqi government.

Statement by Lord Maginnis of Drumglass: It is so illogical that, amid the confusion over how it should support operations in Afghanistan and bearing in mind the impending enquiry as to whether its engagement in Iraq was based on justifiable cause, that our Government should be so insensitive to the needs Iranian refugees in Camp Ashraf in Iraq. 

The Guardian, by Lord Corbett of Castle Vale: A brutal attack on members of Iran's opposition based in Iraq is a demonstration of the Iranian regime's influence over the nation.

The Spectator: At least seven members of the Iranian opposition group, the Peoples' Mujahideen of Iran, were killed yesterday and 400 others injured in an Iraqi attack on the PMOI headquarters in Ashraf, Iraq.

Daily Mirror: More than 300 people have died in the Iranian riots which have swept the country since June, MPs were told yesterday.

The Independent, By Rt. Hon. Lord Waddington: Last week's anti-government rallies in the streets of Tehran and elsewhere show that the situation in Iran remains explosive and makes nonsense of the regime's claims that the protests are over.
