Israel Iran War | Karnataka's Alipura Village Mourns Death Of Ayatollah Khamenei

Описание: Thousands of Shia Muslims in the Indian village of Alipura - known as 'Mini Iran' - entered a three-day mourning period following the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Footage captured on Wednesday reveals Alipura, home to around 30,000 residents - nearly 90% of whom are Shia Muslims - shutting down all shops and businesses, draping black flags over homes and mosques, and pausing all celebratory activities. Sombre processions have moved through the village streets, bearing portraits of the late Iranian leader.

In 1981 - or, some say, 1986 - a young Khamenei - an emerging figure before his rise to Supreme Leader in 1989 - made a historic visit to Alipura, at the invitation of local entrepreneurs who had cultivated trade ties with Iran following a meeting with then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi.
