Iran's new supreme leader remains unseen as Khamenei's state funeral draws massive crowds

Massive crowds gathered for Khamenei's funeral in Tehran, with potential for crowd-related incidents during public mourning.

After more than three decades shaping one of the world's most consequential theocracies, Ayatollah Khamenei has died, leaving Iran suspended between grief and uncertainty. Tens of thousands gathered in Tehran's streets for his state funeral, bearing witness to the end of an era that outlasted wars, sanctions, and the slow erosion of revolutionary idealism. Yet even as the nation mourned in unison, the question of who would inherit his singular authority remained unanswered — a silence that speaks to how much power one man had concentrated, and how difficult it is to pass on.
