Iranians Mourn Slain Leader and Call for Vengeance
Millions took to the streets of Iran to bid farewell to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, killed in the war against the US and Israel, as calls for revenge echoed through the crowds.
Millions of people filled the streets of Iran to honor the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed during the ongoing war with the United States and Israel. The massive funeral procession turned into a demonstration of both grief and anger, with mourners chanting for vengeance.
The death of Iran's supreme leader occurred amid an escalating military conflict that has reshaped the Middle East. The turnout, one of the largest in recent years, underscores the regime's ability to rally public support even after losing its top figure.
International observers warn of further instability as Iran vows retaliation. Meanwhile, world powers urge restraint, though the atmosphere remains tense. Further mourning ceremonies are planned across the country, with officials balancing calls for peace with pledges to respond to the attacks.
