About 90,000 people crossed Iran’s Khuzestan border crossings over the past three days to attend the funeral ceremonies for Iran’s slain Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in Iraq, a provincial official said on Wednesday.

Valiollah Hayati, the deputy governor for security and law enforcement affairs in Khuzestan, said the crossings were recorded at the Shalamcheh and Chazzabeh borders.

He said the travelers were heading to Najaf and Karbala to take part in the ceremonies.
