Iran is in mourning as it holds a massive, multi-day funeral for its late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, whose body lies in state in Tehran amid a sea of black-clad mourners and national shutdowns. The funeral, coinciding with the U.S. Independence Day, has sparked chants of “Death to America!” echoing Iran’s historic defiance, while President Trump hints at potential peace. With millions expected to attend — reminiscent of Khomeini’s 1989 funeral — the event could bolster Iran’s government as it navigates war, negotiations, and succession uncertainty, especially as Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, the late leader’s son, remains conspicuously absent amid warnings to global powers to tread carefully.
