Iranian Quds Force General Qassem Soleimani’s burial is taking place in his home town of Kerman on Wednesday, January 8.

The burial was initially planned to take place on Tuesday, but was postponed after overcrowding caused a deadly stampede, in which dozens of people were killed.

Soleimani and the deputy leader of Iraq's Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) Mohammed Ali Ebrahimi, also known as Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, and other militia leaders were killed in a US airstrike at Baghdad's international airport in the early hours of Friday morning.
