After Southern Lebanon, a statue of Qasim Soleimani Installed in Iran
Tehran: After southern Lebanon, a statue of Qasem Soleimani has been installed in Ahwaz and Kerman, Iran.
According to reports, after Ahwaz, a statue of General Qasem Soleimani has been installed in Kerman. It is the hometown of General Qasem Soleimani.
Authorities in Iran have installed a statue of Qasem Soleimani. He is the slain head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards’ Al-Quds Force, in the Arab-majority region of Ahwaz (Khuzestan Province). Earlier, Hezbollah had installed a statue of Soleimani in the southern Lebanese town of Maron al-Ras. Hezbollah’s move was criticized by various quarters.
The installation of Soleimani’s statue in Ahwaz is being criticized by some Iranian activists. He recalled the role of the Revolutionary Guards in crushing a wave of protests across Iran last November. Hundreds of protesters lost their lives during the crackdown.
Speaking at the unveiling of a statue of Qasim Soleimani on Monday, Ahwaz Mayor Musa Shaeri said the move was a tribute to the sacrifices made by the Iranian commander for the city of Ahwaz during the Iraq-Iran war. Presently, a street in the city of Ahwaz has been named after Abu Mehdi al-Mohandes, the deputy head of the Iraqi militia al-Hashd al-Shabi. Abu Mehdi was killed along with Qasem Soleimani in a US airstrike near Baghdad airport on January 3.
Hezbollah on Saturday erected a statue of Soleimani in the Shiite-majority town of Maron al-Ras in southern Lebanon. The move was widely criticized on social media.
Eli Luca, mayor of the Christian-majority town of Double, near Maroon Al-Ras, told Al-Arabiya.net that “it would have been better if the park where the statue of Soleimani was installed had been renamed Lebanon Park instead of” Iran Park ” or “Marvin Alras “. 
Earlier, a statue of Martyr Qasem Soleimani was installed on the border of Occupied Palestine. It is a manifestation of the firm determination to liberate the occupied Palestine. The Palestinian flag is flying on the statue of Shaheed Qasem Soleimani.
