  6. One of the blasts can be heard in this video followed by the screams of the crowd. The two explosions took place some 10 minutes apart. Video taken near the blast site shows dozens of bodies lying on the ground. With rescue efforts still on the way, Iranian broadcasters spoke to the head of the local red crescent by phone. A terrible sound was heard there. Despite all the security and safety measures we are still investigating. We are now evacuating the wounded and injured in the area. The crowd is huge, and the job is quite hard. All the pathways are blocked. The blasts took place at a cemetery in the Southeastern province of Kerman, where huge crowds had gathered at the tomb of General Kasım Süleymani to mark the anniversary of his death. The former leader of Iran’s Elite Quds Force was killed on January 3rd 4 years ago in a US drone strike in Iraq. No one has claimed responsibility for the blasts, which Iranian officials are referring to as terrorist attacks.

  7. Tragic! Iran already accused Israel for being behind this attack and will retaliate. Israel won't take responsibly, because that will risk escalation of the war, with Russia, China and Nth.Korea, who have nukes, ready to support Iran if US gets involved. God help us. It will be a devastation with huge human loss!😢

  17. So is F24 actually going to name this as terrorism or shy away again because Israel is suspect?

  22. This is definitely the work of the USA and Israel, they are enemies of Iran, who hates Iran all this time, they are the masterminds who use terrorism as a mask, in fact it is the USA and Israel that are causing chaos in this world. If there are people from the USA and Israel who don't want to accept it, please comment below. let's debate
