Qasem Soleimani: Dueling street floods return to Iran – BBC News

Hundreds of thousands of mourners have gone to Iran to pick up the remains of Qasem Soleimani, a US drone strike killed in Iraq.

In Ahvaz, while Soleimani was in the Iran-Iraq war (1980-88), they sang the mourning: "Death to America."

Soleimani was Iran's influential architect throughout the Middle East and was the second most powerful man in the country.

His assassination has seen significant escalation between Iran and the US.

Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei, who had a close personal relationship with Soleimani, said the attack was a "serious retaliation", and analysts say Iran may target cyber attacks on the US or regular attacks on US targets or interests in the Middle East. .
