Helicopters that were in this aerial convoy and only one of them crashed. But yes, it was carrying the president. It was carrying the Foreign Minister hossein amir of the law at least three crew members, the governor of Eastern Azerbaijan province. Thats again where the ceremony had been taking place on the border with azerbaijan is separate country. Of course and then the friday prayer, imam who leads the friday prayers in the city of tabriz. Thats the Major Metropolitan Center in that part of iran paula, i have done a road trip through this part of iran to the border, to turkey from tehran and i can personally attest to the fact that this area is rugged. It is very sparsely populated as well. We perhaps explain why you would have such a high level delegation traveling by helicopter because any kind of trip by road would have taken hours and hours and also been on potentially the dangerous roads.
