Stampede at funeral of Iranian general killed by US leaves 32 dead and 190 injured

Thirty-two people have died in a stampede at the funeral of assassinated Iranian general Qassem Soleimani.

A further 190 were injured in the tragedy at Soleimani's hometown of Kerman, where the military chief was being laid to rest, according to state TV.

Tens of thousands had turned out to pay their respects as anger grows over his death.

Distressing footage shows victims being treated at the scene of the stampede. The general's burial has been postponed as a result of the stampede.

Soleimani was killed in a US airstrike in Baghdad on Friday, and his death has provoked a crisis, with Iran pledging to avenge his death.
