The ruling on purifying something contaminated by urine does not change even if another impurity is present. Regarding the purification of something contaminated by urine:
Ayatollah Al-Sistani (may God protect him):
A garment or body contaminated by urine is purified by washing it once in flowing water. It must be washed twice if washed with a small amount of water, and it is also recommended to wash it twice if washed with water from a large source or rainwater.

Ayatollah Al-Khamenei (may God protect him):
An object contaminated by impurity is purified after the impurity is removed by submerging it in flowing or large water or washing it with connected tap water once, ensuring that the water reaches all contaminated areas. For items like carpets and clothing, after submersion in water, it is necessary to move or wring them out, as a precaution. However, this movement or wringing does not have to be outside the water; it is sufficient for it to occur while submerged.
