Iran Mourns Khamenei Amid Revenge Calls | Glasgow News

Tehran erupted in mourning as thousands gathered for a solemn funeral procession for Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, his coffin borne on a decorated truck amid chants of grief and calls for vengeance against the U.S. and Israel. Mourners, draped in black, touched the vehicle in a ritual believed to bring blessings, while signs targeted Trump and Netanyahu. The mourning period, spanning four days, is designed to project unity and loyalty to the regime, with streets and skies shut down for the ceremonies. Though Iran denies plotting against Trump since Soleimani’s 2020 killing, propaganda continues to hint at assassination plots. Diplomatic talks on the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s nuclear program have been put on hold until after Khamenei’s burial in Mashhad.
