At least 56 people have been killed in a stampede in the southeastern Iranian city of Kerman at the funeral procession for top Revolutionary Guard commander Qassem Soleimani assassinated in an air raid by the United States.
Iranian state TV said at least 56 people have been killed and more than 200 injured in the stampede, citing security sources.
Earlier, the head of the country's emergency services, Pirhossein Koolivand, told state television that "190 were injured" due to "overcrowding".
The injured were immediately transferred to the hospital, he added.
Initial videos posted online showed people lying lifeless on a road, others shouting and trying to help them.
Hundreds of thousands of people had gathered in Kerman for the burial of Soleimani, the head of Revolutionary Guard's elite Quds Force, who was assassinated on Friday near the Baghdad airport.
Officials lowered the shroud-wrapped remains of Soleimani into the ground in Kerman just before 6am on Wednesday. Mourners at the grave site wailed.
