‘Humanity is with Raeisi’: People worldwide pray for Iranian president’s safety
By Press TV Website Staff
Immediately after news broke that a helicopter carrying Iran’s President Ebrahim Raeisi and some other officials suffered a hard landing in northwestern Iran’s East Azerbaijan province on Sunday, people took to various social media platforms to pray for their safety.
President Raeisi was returning from a ceremony on the border with Azerbaijan where he and his Azerbaijani counterpart Ilham Aliyev inaugurated two hydraulic projects earlier in the day.
Several search and rescue teams have been dispatched to the area, which is believed to be mountainous, but the operation has been slowed down by inclement weather conditions.
“Humanity is with Raeisi,” wrote Rev Laskaris, a US-based social media influencer, on X.
