Xinhua News Agency, Tehran, May 22 (Reporter Wang Tengfei Shadati) The Iranian government held a group funeral for President Lehi, Foreign Minister Abdullahian, Governor of East Azerbaijan Province Lakhmati and other victims of the helicopter accident in Tehran on the 22nd.

On that day, the sad mood permeated the whole Tehran, with few pedestrians and shops closed on the busy streets. The reporter saw that the city was full of the remains of Leahy, Abdullahian and others.

The solemn funeral was held on the campus of Tehran University, attended by tens of thousands of Iranian people, and Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei prayed at the scene.

After the funeral prayers, the bodies of the victims were transferred from Tehran University to Freedom Square. On both sides of the street, people held the remains of Leahy and others to mourn.

Ali, a citizen of Tehran who took his son to the funeral, sobbed and said that he was still shocked and did not believe in the loss of his beloved president.

"Leahy has been serving the people and died in the process of serving the people," said Bita, a middle-aged woman who took her little daughter to the ceremony. "I am deeply saddened."

Lehi's body will be buried on the 23rd in Mashhad, the northeastern city of Iran, where he was born.

Lehi and others were killed when their helicopter crashed in the mountains of northwest Iran on the 19th. The Iranian government announced a five-day national mourning on the 20th.
