ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN POST on 27 December 1993 issued a set of First Day Cover reflecting Iran's solidarity with the Muslim population of Bosnia-Herzegovina during the Bosnian War. Postmark cancellation originated from Tehran.
The three stamps depicted various scenes, including children, a man raising his hand in a gesture of solidarity, and a Muslim woman in a yellow headscarf, all set against backgrounds that included architectural elements reminiscent of Bosnia-Herzegovins mosques, symbolising support for the Bosnian Muslim community. The face value of these stamps were 40 Ris and 10 Ris denominations.
The cachet shown on the envelope contains various Iranian cultural and symbolic elements, including a mosque, the Iranian flag, and Olympic rings, suggesting a blend of national identity, religious significance, and perhaps a nod to sporting achievements.
