Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei Leads Funeral Prayer For Hamas’ Ismail Haniyeh, Thousands Pay Tribute

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei prayed over Ismail Haniyeh’s coffin at Tehran University while Iran's new President Masoud Pezeshkian stood next to him. State television later showed the coffins placed in a truck and moved on the street toward Azadi Square in Tehran and people throwing flowers at them. After the funeral services in Tehran, Haniyeh's remains are to be transferred to Qatar for burial Friday. Ismail Haniyeh and his bodyguard were killed in a shocking assassination blamed on Israel that risked escalating into an all-out regional war.
