Participants were those who could not make it to the huge Arabeen march toward the Iraqi city of Karbala where Imam Hussein’s holy shrine is located. Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi attended the march in Birjand, the capital city of South Khorasan province, where he also delivered a speech, and his first vice-president, Mohammad Mokhber, attended the march in Tehran from the capital city’s Imam Hussein Square to Shah Abdol-Azim shrine in Shahr-e Rey.
