MNA – Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has received teenage students from the two provinces of Tehran and Alborz before they embark on a Rahian-e Noor journey to war zones in the southwest of the country.


Rahian-e Noor (the passenger of light?) is a group of religious and political caravans which travel between visiting zones in south and southwestern in Iran to commemorate Iranian efforts and lives lost in the Iran–Iraq War. The caravans of Rahian-e Noor typically travel to war zones around the time of Nowruz - the Iranian New Year - and during summer vacation.
