iamfromiran: Liberation of Khorramshahr The Liberation of Khorramshahr was the Iranian recapture of the port city of Khorramshahr from the Iraqis (Baathist) on May 24, 1982 during the Iran–Iraq War. The Baathist had captured the city early in the war on October 26, 1980. The successful retaking of the city was part of Operation Beit ol-Moqaddas. It is perceived as a turning point in the war and the liberation is celebrated in Iran on its anniversary, 24 May. -- source link
