Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for an extended state visit to Iran that would include participation in the funeral ceremonies of late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, according to a report from India. The invitation is a fresh development in Iran's post-Khamenei diplomatic outreach.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has invited Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for an extended state visit to Iran that would include participation in the funeral ceremonies of late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, according to a single report from India, as monitored by Israeli journalist Asaf Rozentzweig (N12).
The invitation signals Iran's ongoing efforts to draw major international figures to the late leader's funeral events, which have become a central diplomatic window since Khamenei's death. As The Zioneer has previously reported (BACKGROUND only), several neighboring countries requested to send mourners, and Pakistan's PM had already confirmed attendance.
The report is based on a single source and has not yet been independently confirmed by official Indian or Iranian statements. Details of the proposed visit—timing, duration, or Modi's response—remain unannounced.
