Rashid Ali´s Escape[edit]

Rashid Ali and the members of The Golden Square flied from Baghdad on 30.05.1941 to Iran (Persia) and thence to Germany. Can anyone add to the main article his route from Iran to Germany. Via Turkey and Balkan or via Soviet Union? He had time 21 days before Hilter launched Operation Barbarossa.
