The bloody history of funerals in Iran

A major reason behind this fear of the Iranian government is the history of deaths of people during the funerals of big leaders in Iran. In 1989, when the funeral procession of Iran’s first Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini was carried out, 8 people were killed and hundreds were badly injured in the stampede. Similarly, in the year 2020, when the funeral procession of Kurds Force Commander Qasim Suleimani was taken out after his death, 56 people died during a sudden stampede in Kerman city. While 200 people were injured. This is the reason why the Iranian government is afraid of a stampede at Khamenei’s funeral.
