Half Martyr, Half …

Only a few days was left to the military operation ‘Karbala 4’. I don’t know maybe it lasted for an hour that I was able to gather the war veterans who were present there to take a souvenir photo. To be honest, I had guessed that many of these war veterans would be killed in the military operation that was underway. In fact they were the passengers of God.

That is why I urged so much that all of them to come together in the same place to take the photo. Until today I myself did not have a good statistic of them. But today when I look at the photo, I can see that 64 war veterans have been placed in the frame of camera. I can say that half of these 64 war veterans are not with us anymore.

From these 32 martyrs, Khalil Yahayshan was killed in the same military operation and the rest were the continuers of his path during the next military operations.

The other veterans killed in action include: Reza and Majid Pil Hafroshha, Parviz Esfandiyari, Mehrdad Khanban, Ali Javir Mehr, Fallah Anbuhi, Shalbaf, Reza Vahabi, Ebrahim Karami, Mohammad Reza Kabiri, Hussein Esmaeli, Mohsen Emam Gholi, Ghasem Jamali, Hussein Ebadi, Majid Roghani, Mahmoud Ahmadi, Ebadi, Davoud Khalili, Rahim Sahrakarniya, Ahmad Allahyari, Seyed Bagher Elmi, Mohammad Kiamiri, Ali Reza Jawadi, Akbar Asadi, Asghar Mafi, Esmael Marandi, Seyed Ali Husseini, Amir Bagheriyan, Mohsen Zarini, Sadegh Salehi, Jafar Saghaeiyan, Parviz Esfandiyari.
