On the eve of the Ten Day Dawn celebrations in Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei also visited the graves of the martyrs of the Islamic Revolution, and prayed to God Almighty for the exaltation of their souls.

On 12th of Bahman Iranian Solar Hijri (31th of January) some 33 years ago, Imam Khomeini returned to Iran from 15 years of exile and ten days later the British-installed and American-supported Pahlavi regime collapsed, culminating in the triumph of the Iranian people's revolutionary movement.
