Khamenei Coffin Display Opens Iran Funeral Drive

Iran displayed Ali Khamenei's coffin at Tehran's Grand Mosalla at 00:53 IDT, after February strikes killed the former supreme leader and several relatives. Updated at 01:16: the body arrived at the prayer complex as Tehran turns the long-delayed farewell into a multi-day victory and revenge procession. Ceremonies run from Tehran through Qom and Iraq, with burial in Mashhad on July 9, while Mojtaba Khamenei's first public appearance remains uncertain. For Israel, the regime's pageantry and threats underline that deterrence must stay clear-eyed until Tehran's new leadership abandons proxy war and nuclear coercion.
