Iran's supreme leader vowed to avenge the death of Ali Khamenei and other Iranians

Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei vowed that Tehran would avenge the death of the late Ali Khamenei and other Iranians who fell victim to American and Israeli strikes.

"We swear to avenge your blood and the blood of all the martyrs of these two wars by punishing the criminal and disgraced killers. This revenge is the will of our people, and it must certainly be carried out," the written address by Khamenei on the occasion of his father's funeral stated. "Revenge is the demand of our people, and it must be carried out," he emphasized.

The farewell to Ali Khamenei, who died on February 28 as a result of American and Israeli strikes, began in Tehran on July 3. From July 4 to 5, the ayatollah's body was at Tehran's Mosalla (the largest religious and public complex in the Iranian capital). On July 6, a funeral procession took place in Tehran along the main streets, after which the body was delivered to Iran's main religious center, the city of Qom, where funeral ceremonies were held on July 7. That same evening, Ali Khamenei's body was sent to Iraq, where separate farewell ceremonies were organized for local Shiite Muslims in Najaf and Karbala. The burial of the late supreme leader took place on July 9 in his native Mashhad.
