Video Shows Purports To Show Body Of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani Flying Coach Tuesday

TARHAN, IRAN. (THECOUNT) — A viral video purports to show the temporary coffin holding slain Iranian General Qassem Soleimani placed across multiple seats in the coach section of a Mahan Air plane bound for Iran out of Iraq, DailyWire is reporting Tuesday morning.

“A video of the journey posted on social media on Sunday showed five cardboard boxes resting on seats in the cabin of a passenger jet rather than being loaded into the cargo or baggage compartments,” the outlet reports.

“Once Soleimani’s remains arrived in the capital, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei prayed over them at Tehran University before he was taken to the holy city of Qom for a ceremony at Masumeh shrine, ahead of a funeral on Tuesday in his hometown of Kerman.”
