The funeral of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and four of his family members was held in Tehran on Sunday morning, the third day of a seven-day mourning and burial process. The ceremony took place at 8 a.m. local time, led by Shia cleric Jafar Sobhani. Khamenei, aged 86, was killed on February 28 in a joint U.S.-Israeli attack that also claimed the lives of his daughter Bushra Khamenei, granddaughter Zahra Mohammadi Golpayegani, and other relatives. State media showed Zahra’s small coffin placed beside her grandfather’s.
Iran declared a national holiday for the funeral, with large crowds gathering in the capital under tight security. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps confirmed the arrangements, and authorities warned of overcrowding risks. Millions of Iranians had joined earlier mourning events, marking one of the largest gatherings since the 1989 funeral of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
Following Khamenei’s death, his son Mojtaba Khamenei was named the new Supreme Leader but has not appeared publicly due to security threats. The funeral procession will continue through Qom, Iraq, and Mashhad, where Khamenei will be buried on Thursday.
