Ayatollah Khamenei expressed deep sorrow over the ‘heartbreaking’ and ‘disastrous’ incident in a mine in Golestan province, which claimed the lives of a number of ‘hardworking’ and entrapped several others.
“It is required that all possible measures are taken to rescue the stranded people,” the Leader added in his Thursday message.
“The incident is very bitter, and I hope God will help them. I condole the families of all the dear victims, and I wish patience and peace for them, and God’s mercy for the trapped ones,” Ayatollah Khamenei added, calling on the authorities to expedite their efforts.
