Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion–103 killed in blasts near Soleimani’s burial place during ceremony

ed note–besides the horror of the event itself, no different than the state-sponsored Genocide taking place in Gaza, what all Gentiles with a vested interest in their own future survival need to know about this is that it is but the opening of that same ‘WWIII’ that Israel’s newly-installed Foreign Minister referenced on his first day in office just a few hours ago.

Two explosions caused by ‘terrorist attacks’ killed more than 100 people and wounded scores at a ceremony in Iran to commemorate top commander Qassem Soleimani who was killed in a 2020 US drone attack, Iranian officials said on Wednesday.

Iranian state television reported a first and then a second explosion during an anniversary event at the cemetery where Soleimani is buried in the southeastern city of Kerman.

Babak Yektaparast, a spokesperson for Iran’s emergency services, was reported as saying 73 people had been killed and 170 injured. State television said later that at least 100 people had been killed.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attacks.

Videos aired by Iranian media showed dozens of bodies strewn around with some bystanders trying to attend to survivors and others hurrying to leave the blast area.

‘A terrible sound was heard there, despite all the security and safety measures. We are still investigating,’ Reza Fallah, head of the Kerman Red Crescent Society, told state television.

‘We are now evacuating the wounded and injured in the area. The crowd is huge and the job is quite hard all the paths to there are blocked,’ Fallah said.

Suitcases containing remotely-activated explosives

Local media officials told Iranian state TV later on Wednesday that the explosions were caused by two suitcases containing explosives that were triggered remotely. According to the sources, the second explosion deliberately targeted security forces in the area, according to Israeli media.

According to the officials, the devices were activated by remote control with a 10-second interval between them. The first explosion occurred about 700 meters from Soleimani’s grave, and the second explosion was directed towards the security forces who organized the ceremony to commemorate the fourth anniversary of the leader’s death, according to the report.
