A single unverified Iranian the source reports that the vehicle carrying the body of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is stuck in a large crowd and unable to move. The report has not been independently confirmed.
An Iranian the source reports that the vehicle carrying the body of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has become stuck in a large crowd during Monday's funeral procession in Tehran and is unable to move. The report, which describes a "big drama" unfolding, has not been independently verified by The Zioneer or any other established news outlet.
Earlier on Monday, conflicting reports emerged over crowd sizes and logistical complications. Thousands of mourners who traveled from across Iran were reportedly left unable to see the coffin after authorities changed the procession route at the last moment, as The Zioneer reported (Mon 09:33 Jerusalem). State-linked Iranian media claim millions are participating in the multi-day funeral events.
The current report, if confirmed, would mark a further organizational breakdown in what has been a chaotic state funeral for the late Supreme Leader, who was eliminated four months ago. No official Iranian or international media confirmation has been received.
