Iran’s state media reports over 20 deaths in explosions at Soleimani’s tomb
Explosions at Ceremony Marking Death of Qassem Soleimani
DUBAI (Reuters)—In a shocking turn of events, two explosions caused by ‘terrorist attacks’ have rocked a cemetery in Iran where a ceremony was taking place to commemorate the 2020 death of the country’s revered commander, Qassem Soleimani. The ceremony was held to honor Soleimani, who was killed in a U.S. drone attack. Iranian officials have confirmed that at least 20 people have lost their lives, with dozens more injured.
The explosions occurred during the ceremony in the southeastern city of Kerman, as reported by Iranian state television. A local official in the Kerman province described the blasts as “terrorist attacks.” The semi-official Nournews had initially stated that “several gas canisters exploded on the road leading to the cemetery.”
Heart-wrenching scenes unfolded on State TV, showing Red Crescent rescuers rushing to attend to the wounded individuals at the ceremony. Hundreds of Iranians had gathered to pay their respects to Soleimani on the anniversary of his death. Some Iranian news agencies have reported that at least 50 people were wounded.
“Our rapid response teams are working tirelessly to evacuate the injured individuals. However, the roads are congested due to the overwhelming number of people,” said Reza Fallah, head of the Kerman province Red Crescent, in an interview with state TV.
It is worth noting that President Joe Biden’s State Department had previously refrained from endorsing former President Donald Trump’s decision to eliminate Soleimani. “We’re not going to rehash history,” a State Department spokesman told the Washington Free Beacon at the time.

5. Prepare an outline or brief: Even if the individual is unable to write the full article, they can provide an outline or brief with key points, research, and references to assist the person taking over the task. This helps maintain consistency and ensures that the replacement writer has a clear direction to follow.
6. Offer to revise or edit existing content: If there is already some written material available, the individual can suggest revising or editing it to match the desired article. This could save time and still meet the commitment to produce quality content.
