Soleimani's burial delayed after deadly stampede at his funeral
At least 40 were killed and 213 injured after a stampede at Qasem Soleimani's funeral today, Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency reports.

Soleimani's body was due to be buried today, but Press TV reported the burial has been delayed because of the massive crowds.
Those 253 people were most likely the ones who said that they would not be attending the state funeral. Why the delay ? It isn't their custom to have the burial within 24 hours? ...h'mm something does not smell right.
