The Iran-focused the source reports that the plaza of the tomb of late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is located at the Imam Reza shrine in the city of Mashhad.
The Iran-focused the source Abu Ali Express reported Saturday evening that the plaza of the tomb of late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is located at the Imam Reza shrine in Mashhad. This follows the channel's earlier report on Thursday, July 9, that a new permanent burial plaza had been constructed in the city.
The Zioneer's coverage of the burial and its aftermath began on Thursday, July 9, at 21:20 Jerusalem, with reports of explosions during the ceremony. Subsequent updates that evening confirmed Khamenei's burial in the Dar al-Dhikr section of the shrine complex, the release of footage by Iranian state media, and unverified claims of the leader's elimination. The same evening, Abu Ali Express first reported the construction of a permanent burial plaza. The new report now specifies the location of the plaza within the shrine.
The Zioneer has previously reported on Mashhad as Iran's second-largest city and spiritual capital, and on a July 2026 incident that left 10 dead and 25 wounded amid heightened tension following the burial.
The report from Abu Ali Express remains unverified by independent sources, and the message does not clarify whether the plaza is newly constructed or pre-existing. The overall situation surrounding the burial site continues to develop.
