| 2004-08-16 |
| Ali-Asghar Ahmadi, the deputy interior minister for security affairs, here on Sunday said that due to the current insecurity in Iraq pilgrims are advised not to travel to the country. Ahmadi told the Mehr News Agency that everything is normal on the Iran-Iraq borders. Although pilgrims can enter Iraq through the Khosravi border checkpoint legally, due to the insecurity in Iraq, pilgrims are advised not to make visits to the holy cities, he added. On the arrest of some Iranian pilgrims in Iraq, Ahmadi said that the Iranian Foreign Ministry is responsible for pursuing the issue and making efforts to obtain the release of the detained pilgrims. |
