Tehran, March 13 (NA) — An explosion near a pro-government demonstration in Tehran left at least one dead this Friday, international media reported. The incident took place during a traditional rally in support of the Palestinian people and against Israel. The protesters were not frightened. In images released by witnesses and media, it can be seen that the protesters were not frightened by what happened and the smoke rising from the explosion site, and continued to chant slogans. "The people came out to tell the enemy: 'We are not afraid of you.' With its rebellion and anger, the people will not leave the place," commented the commander of the Iranian Police, Ahmad-Reza Radan. Initial reports from international media only accounted for the first fatal victim but did not specify why the explosion occurred, according to versions from the Xinhua News Agency and Actualidad RT site, both consulted by the Argentine News Agency (#AgenciaNA). The sound that was heard and the people's response was their takbir [the declaration of faith fundamental that is used daily in Muslim prayers].
