Iranian people mark Ghadir, denounce Israel attacks

Iranian people gathered in different cities on Saturday to mark the occasion of Eid al-Ghadir and denounce the recent Israeli aggressions against Iran.

In light of the savage attack by the Zionist regime of Israeli on Iran and the martyrdom of a number of military commanders, scientists and and innocent unarmed people, the organizing committee for the Ghadir renames the Ghadir celebration to "Iran; Ali’s Zolfaqar" where a large number of people gathered to show the national unity and solidarity with Iranian armed forces to defend the country.

Eid al-Ghadir commemorates the day Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) appointed Ali ibn Abi Talib (AS) as his successor.

The celebration over the past years featured cultural programs, charity campaigns, and the distribution of free drinks and food.

This year's Ghadir celebration in Tehran took place between two iconic squares Imam Hossein and Azadi.
