Yani dyunya (Crimean Tatar: Янъы дюнья / Yañı Dünya) is a Crimean Tatar-language weekly newspaper, published in Simferopol. Its history dates back to 1918, when it was established in Moscow. In 2015, the newspaper was merged with the magazine Yildiz.
History
The newspaper was founded in Moscow in 1918. Its first director was the Turkish Communist Mustafa Suphi. The newspaper was later moved to Simferopol, and in the late 1930s renamed to Kyzyl Kyrym (Crimean Tatar: Къызыл Къырым / Qızıl Qırım) (Red Crimea). It was closed with the deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, and refounded in 1957 in Tashkent with the name Lenin bayragy (Crimean Tatar: Ленин байрагъы / Lenin Bayrağı) (Lenin's Flag) as an organ of the Central Committee of the Uzbek SSR Communist Party.
In the 1970s, the newspaper was printed thrice a week with a circulation of 23,000. In June 1983, the government of the Uzbek SSR forbid the newspaper from using terms such as "Crimean ASSR", as well as Crimean Tatar names of towns such as "Aqmescit" for Simferopol, "Aqyar" for Sevastopol, and "Gezlev" for Yevpatoria in articles mentioning the birthplaces of Crimean Tatars featured in the newspaper.
In 1991, the newspaper returned to Simferopol and to its old name of Yani dyunya.
In 2015, Zera Bekirova, who had been the chief editor for six years, resigned, citing political pressure on the newspaper. Seyran Suleyman became the new chief editor.
