In the program "Khat-Khati" on the Ofogh network, the host asked the audience, "In your opinion, which refrigerator does the Islamic Republic of Iran keep the corpses in?" 00:43
And the answer options to this question were "One: side-by-side refrigerator, two: ice cream maker, three: supermarket freezer, and four: I'm an ice seller, don't disrupt my business."

The release of this segment of the program sparked a lot of criticism on social media, and even users close to the government criticized it.
The Islamic Republic's state media, IRIB, stated that Sadegh Yazdani, the director of the Ofogh network, was dismissed due to "offensive" remarks about the victims of the events in December.

The public relations department of IRIB said that Sadegh Yazdani was dismissed following the airing of a program from the Ofogh network with content "offensive to the martyrs and victims of the December incidents" and "negligence in managing the content of the Khat-Khati program," and the broadcast of this program has also been halted.

At the same time, it has been reported that Saeed Maghiseh has been appointed as the caretaker of this network by Mohsen Boromahani, the deputy of the television.
Saeed Maghiseh is currently the head of the IRIB Basij Center.
