Photos and videos related to the funeral of former Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei have surfaced. Many members of his family, the President, senior army officers and top religious leaders attended the last prayers. However, the most talked about issue is the absence of his successor and current Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei. Due to security reasons, he was not seen publicly at the funeral.
Khamenei’s son attended the last prayers
According to news agency AP, Ali Khamenei’s sons Masoud, Maysam and Mustafa attended the last prayers. At the same time, Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) commander Ahmed Wahedi was also present during this period. According to the report, Ali Khamenei’s son and his successor Mojtaba Khamenei did not attend the funeral.
It has been reported that security agencies considered it risky for him to appear in public after Israel threatened to target him too. For this reason he did not participate publicly in the funeral.
