More People Returning from Iraq after Arbaeen Pilgrimage

Arbaeen, which is one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, comes 40 days after Ashura, the martyrdom anniversary of Imam Hussein (AS). Each year, a huge crowd of people flock to Karbala, where the holy shrine of Imam Hussein is located, to perform mourning rites. More than 3 million Iranians have travelled to Iraq for this year’s Arbaeen.
