Iran began the first day of the state funeral for late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Tehran, drawing thousands of mourners and foreign delegations to the Grand Mosalla mosque. The six-day funeral is expected to continue through several Iranian cities before concluding with his burial in Mashhad. Iranian authorities have described the ceremonies as a tribute to Khamenei's decades-long leadership, while the event has also become a display of national unity and political messaging following his death earlier this year. #AyatollahAliKhamenei #Iran #Tehran #StateFuneral #MiddleEast #IranNews #SupremeLeader #Mashhad #WorldNews #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #IranPolitics #FuneralCeremony #InternationalNews Thank you for watching our video!
