BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Single-source framing: the entire coverage relies on TASS, which relays Western and Iranian agencies without independent Russian analytical voice.

Preference for American official statements: Iranian positions and reactions are minority, sourced mainly from Fars agency via TASS.

Limited humanitarian context coverage: consequences of bombardments on the Iranian population and energy implications of Hormuz closure are absent from the articles.
