🔸 Eliakbar Pourjamshidian, Deputy Minister of the Interior and Chief of Staff of Arbain, announced on Sunday, October 5, that at least five Iranian military forces were killed in the Arbain ceremony held this year in Iraq.

According to him, "During the security of Arba'in this year, five people from the defense forces were killed and ten people were injured, some of them Iranian compatriots."

🔸 In the days leading up to this year's Arbain ceremony, which coincided with August 13, the government media inside Iran reported on Saudi Arabia's "missile attacks" on "Arbain Husseini processions and pilgrims in Karbala district", but none of them mentioned that Iranian citizens were killed in these attacks.
