Ah. Because my passive-voice "Spidey sense" "tingled" but then I looked up the news agency and was like "huh? Why would this agency be doing passive voice on this article?". So I thought it was worth asking.
Could also be that they're reiterating Lebanese media directly, they do love to use passive voice. It's worth pointing out. I think the most neoliberal Iranian news source I have is Iran Chamber Newsroom (which has been down since the war restarted a while back).
