Iranian climber achieves historic summit in Antarctica

The challenging expedition was led by the experienced Nepali climber and expedition leader, Jangbu Sherpa.

Sherpa, aged 42, is not only a Nepali climber but also an international mountain guide. He has successfully summited Everest five times, as well as Lhotse and Dhaulagiri.

A leading figure in the third generation of Iranian elite climbers, Aziznia has been focusing on summiting high-altitude mountains outside Iran, particularly in the Himalayas and South America.

It’s noteworthy that the first Iranian woman to climb Vinson Massif in Antarctica is Sara Safari.
