He explained that "among the completed preparations are those related to the ceremony for replacing the banner of the dome of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), including the preparation of the main platform and ceremony site, as well as logistical support for media coverage in cooperation with the Media Department, Karbala Satellite Channel, and other broadcasters to transmit the event live."
He added that "the service plans took into account the noticeable rise in temperatures during the first ten days of Muharram," stressing that "sufficient quantities of ice have been prepared, water purification stations have been activated, and water supplies have been secured in coordination and cooperation with the Cooling Division to provide suitable conditions that ensure the comfort of visitors and mourners throughout the mourning period."

The Maintenance Department of the Imam Hussain Holy Shrine, along with all of its units, has mobilized its full technical and service capabilities in coordination with the other departments in preparation for the holy month of Muharram, the ceremony to replace the banner of the dome of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him), and the Tuwairij Run mourning procession.
