    Abstract: Today, tourism industry is considered as the largest and the most various industries in the world and many countries regard the industry as a part of their main source of income, employment, the growth of the private sector and the development of infrastructure.

  • Iran's Sunnis Resist Extremism, but for How Long?
    Atlantic Council SOUTH ASIA CENTER ISSUE BRIEF Iran’s Sunnis Resist Extremism, but for How Long? APRIL 2018 SCHEHEREZADE FARAMARZI ome fifteen million of Iran’s eighty million people are Sunni Muslims, the country’s largest religious minority. Politically and economically disadvantaged, these Sunnis receive relatively lit- tle attention compared with other minorities and are concen- Strated in border areas from Baluchistan in the southeast, to Kurdistan in the northwest, to the Persian Gulf in the south. The flare up of tensions between regional rivals Saudi Arabia and Iran over Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Yemen would seem to encourage interest in the state of Iranian Sunnis, if only because the Saudis present them- selves as defenders of the world’s Sunnis, and Iran the self-appointed champion of the Shia cause. So how do Iran’s Sunnis fare in a state where Shia theology governs al- most every aspect of life? How have they been affected by this regional rivalry? Are they stuck between jihadist and other extreme regional Sunni movements on the one hand, and the Shia regime’s aggres- sive policies on the other? Is there a danger that these policies could push some disgruntled Iranian Sunnis toward militancy and terrorism? A tour of Turkmen Sahra in the northeast of Iran near the Caspian Sea, and in Hormozgan on the Persian Gulf in 2015 and 2016 revealed some of the answers. More recent interviews were conducted by phone and in person in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and with European-based experts. “Being a Sunni in Iran means pain, fear, anxiety, restrictions,”1 said a young The Atlantic Council’s South woman in a southern Hormozgan village.

All rights reserved. Abstract Foraminifera are one of the most important fossil microorganisms in the Persian Gulf. During micropaleontological investigations in 5 sampling stations around the Kish Island, 14 genera and 15 species of dead Cenozoic benthic foraminifera were determined and described. Next to these assemblages, other organisms, such as microgastropods and spines of echinids were also looked into. In this study, the statistical analysis of foraminiferal distribution was done in one depth-zone (60-150 m and compared with the Australian-Iran Jaya Continental margin depth- zone.

GeoJournal of Tourism and Geosites, 28(1), 232–245. https://doi.org/10.30892/gtg.28118-465 Abstract: Hormuz Island is a salt dome situated in the Persian Gulf waters near the mouth of Hormuz Strait in Hormuzgan province, at 8 kilometers distance from Bandar Abbas. The island is elliptical, and its rock is mostly of the igneous and often volcanic type. Hormuz is one of the most beautiful Islands of the Persian Gulf due to its geological phenomena and related landforms. This island is a mature salt diapir with great mineralogical and lithological diversity. In this research, we focused on fieldwork, which included data gathering and taking photographs and also a review of the published papers and books. The main geotourism attractions of the island include various landforms resulted from differential erosion, as well as very attractive geomorphologic structures such as rocky and sandy beaches, sea caves, colorful salt domes, coral reefs, etc.

Department of Biology, Faculty of Science, Hakim Sabzevari University, Sabzevar, Iran 2. Young Researchers and Elite Club, Islamic Azad University, Shirvan branch, Shirvan, Iran *Corresponding author: Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. We have described a new species of gekkonid lizard of the genus Tropiocolotes from southern Iran, on the coastal regions of Persian Gulf from Bandar-e Lengeh, Hormozgan province. Tropiocolotes hormozganensis sp. nov. belongs to the eastern clade of the genus Tropiocolotes (wolfganboehmei-nattereri complex) that is distributed in western Asia. It can be distinguished from the recent described species by having four pairs of postmentals and four nasal scales around the nostril. Postmental scales also differentiate it from T. wolfgangboehmei. The new identification key for the Iranian species of genus Tropiocolotes is provided.

ZOO BANK: urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:C49EA333-2BEE-4D8C-85CC-CDAC0AF27902 INTRODUCTION During recent years, many lizard species have been described from Iran, with most from the Phylodctylidae and Gekkonidae families (Smid et al. 2014). The Zagros Mountains is a high endemism area in Iran that has an important role in most speciation events during recent periods (Macey et al. 1998; Gholamifard 2011; Esmaeili-Rineh et al. 2016). Many species from Phylodacthylidae were described recently, all of which are endemic to the 16 I.

  • Iranian Naval Provocations
    NatSec Brief - August 2021 JINSA’s Gemunder Center for Defense and Strategy Iranian Naval Provocations Blaise Misztal - Vice President for Policy Charles B. Perkins - Director for U.S.-Israel Security Policy Jonathan Ruhe - Director of Foreign Policy Ari Cicurel - Senior Policy Analyst An Iranian suicide drone attack near Oman against the Israeli-operated MT Mercer Street killed two crewmembers on July 29, marking the most significant escalation in Tehran’s aggression at sea since 2019. The attack is an alarming convergence of two dangerous trends in Iran’s aggressive activities: its maritime harassment and increasing use of drones. This year, Iran and its proxies are increasingly using drones to strike U.S. service members, partners, and interests in Iraq, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen, with limited U.S. response to date. Now, Tehran is signaling its willingness and ability to apply the lessons it has learned about drones—including its relative impunity—to its maritime aggression. Shortly after the Mercer Street attack, reports indicate that Iranian hijackers took control of the MV Asphalt Princess, a Panama-flagged tanker, in the Gulf of Oman on August 3. To deter future Iranian naval and drone aggression, the United States needs a forceful, persistent, and integrated response, alongside its partners, that disrupts Tehran’s ability to mount such attacks and instills fear of future U.S. reactions. Otherwise, Iran is likely to only escalate its attacks, as it did in 2019. What Happened? • The United States, United Kingdom, Israel, and Romania have alleged that multiple Iranian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) attacked the MT Mercer Street near Oman on July 29, killing the Romanian captain and one British crew member.
