Iranian media report at least 103 killed, 141 injured in explosions near grave of General Qassem Soleimani
Foreign Policy Adviser to Netanyahu Dr. Ophir Falk tells'Cavuto Live' that it could take Israel anywhere from a week to a year to'destroy Hamas.' A pair of explosions near the grave of Iranian general Qassem Soleimani killed at least 103 people and wounded up to 141 more in Kerman, Iran, according to Wednesday reports from Iranian media. Iranian officials say the explosions occurred during a ceremony honoring Soleimani on the fourth anniversary of his death. Soleimani was killed in 2020 at the hands of a U.S. drone strike ordered by then-President Trump. "The blasts were caused by terrorist attacks," Iranian media quoted a local official as saying, without accusing any specific party. "Several gas canisters exploded on the road leading to the cemetery."
