Reports circulating online claim that Iran has opened more than 5,000 schools and 50,000 classrooms across the country to provide temporary accommodation for pilgrims traveling to Tehran.
According to those reports, the facilities are intended to support the large influx of visitors expected for a major national gathering, with millions of people and numerous foreign delegations anticipated to attend.
The reported initiative is aimed at easing pressure on hotels and other accommodation by converting educational institutions into temporary lodging and support centers for visitors arriving from across Iran and abroad.
Authorities are also said to be coordinating logistics to manage transportation, security, and public services during the event.
If the reported figures are accurate, the gathering would rank among the largest public events in Iran’s recent history, attracting significant domestic and international attention.
The large-scale preparations highlight the extensive planning required to accommodate millions of attendees while ensuring essential services are available throughout the duration of the event.
