Rare footage from the tomb of the prophet Havakuk in Iran

 

Visitors have released striking footage from what is believed to be the tomb of Havakuk HaNavi in Tuyserkan, the fourth-largest city in Iran’s Hamadan province, near the traditional burial sites  of Mordechai and Esther.

The identification is debated, as Israel also has a site in the Lower Galilee associated with Havakuk.

The Jews who filmed the scene avoided showing themselves so as not to draw the attention of local authorities.
