Iran Mourns Khamenei Amid War and Controversy | Fargo News

Iran is staging an epic, multi-day funeral for Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, killed in early February amid war with the U.S. and Israel — a spectacle designed to project stability and unity. Massive crowds chant anti-American slogans as his casket, alongside four family members, is paraded through Tehran. The ceremonies, delayed months by war and U.S. strikes, draw global leaders including Medvedev and Pakistan’s PM, even Saudi Arabia — a historic rival. Yet Khamenei’s legacy is divisive: he ruled since 1989, expanded the Revolutionary Guard, and is blamed for thousands of protest deaths. Some Iranians say his death brings no solace. The procession will stretch through the weekend, moving to Qom, then Iraq’s holy cities, before final burial in Mashhad — expected to draw millions.
