Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – January 6, 1987

I brought my luggage to the Majlis with me for traveling. Before the order in the public meeting, I made a short speech on the occasion of Hazrat Zainab's birthday and Nurse's Day. جمع زیادى از نمایندگان، شهادت مهدى همشیره زاده ام را تسلیت و تبریک گفته بودند. I stayed in the meeting until I breathed. [Manochehr] Nikrouz [Kilimian's representative] came. He told the subject of his case. is scared

Mr. Rouhani came to the office to determine how to travel. For security reasons, we had to postpone until tomorrow morning. Salmani came for correction. Akhavi Mohammad was allowed to arrange a direct interview with American Radio next week.

Mr. [Jalil] Seyedzadeh came. He gave a report on the situation in Bakhtran after the bombing and the rumor of the chemical bombing that has led to the desertion of the city and requested for more facilities.

In the evening, Mr. [Mohammed] Abayi and Hatfi came and said that the work [compilation and preparation of the collection] of the key to the Qur'an had started with three groups and they asked for help for the students to be sent to the front. I went home at night. Chastity had also arrived from Rafsanjan. He gave explanations about the funeral ceremony of the martyrs, including two of the martyrs of Behrman Noug, Mehdi Hamshirezadeh being one of them. Magnificently held.

Mr. Rezaei asked permission to delay the attack by one day. I agreed. The Prime Minister woke me up on the phone and said that Dr. [Hasan] Firouzabadi has urgent work. Then he called himself and said he needed to see me tonight. They came at twelve o'clock at night with a group of army doctors. They said that they asked the front to take the doctors immediately and they were worried that the operation would be discovered by sending the doctors. They were supposed to leave twelve hours before the attack.
