Summary
Tens of thousands flood Tehran’s streets in a thunderous, vengeful farewell for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, chanting anti-American and anti-Israel slogans and openly calling for the assassination of Trump and Netanyahu. His son, Mojtaba Khamenei, remains hidden amid reports of injury from the same attack that killed the supreme leader. As Iran’s elite — including President Pezeshkian and Revolutionary Guard chief General Vahidi — unite in mourning, the U.S. holds off on nuclear talks, waiting for the funeral rites to conclude. The funeral procession, stretching through Tehran to Iraq, has shut down streets and airspace, while protesters demand retribution, with one poet asking why Trump still lives. Amid rising tensions, Iran insists on controlling the Strait of Hormuz — a demand the U.S. refuses — even as maritime traffic remains steady but diminished. The world watches as grief, rage, and geopolitical stakes collide.
