Ebrahim Raisi Burial | Thousands Pay Respect To Iranian President Killed In A Chopper Crash | G18V

Iran's late President Ebrahim Raisi is being buried in the holy city of Mashhad, four days after he was killed in a helicopter crash along with foreign minister Hossein Amirabdollahian and seven other people. Raisi's coffin was flown to Mashhad in northeast Iran after a funeral procession was held for him in the eastern city of Birjand, where thousands paid their respects as his remains were driven through the streets in a motorcade. A guard of honour stood to attention as the plane carrying Raisi's coffin arrived in Mashhad, his hometown, where he is being laid to rest at the gold-domed Imam Reza shrine, the holiest Islamic site in Iran and revered by Shi'ite Muslims as the resting place of the 9th century Imam Ali al-Reza.
