The funeral of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is reportedly scheduled for July 4, the US Independence Day, according to unverified reports circulating on social media channels. The date, if confirmed, would coincide with the American holiday and a planned Trump rally in Washington. The reports are not yet independently confirmed.
A single unverified report circulating on Telegram claims that the funeral of late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has been set for July 4, which coincides with the US Independence Day. The claim, posted by an anonymous aggregator channel on Tuesday evening, has not been corroborated by any official Iranian state media or credible news outlet. If accurate, the date would place the ceremony on the same day as a major political rally planned by President Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., though no connection between the two events has been established. As The Zioneer previously reported, unconfirmed travel-agency offerings for a Khamenei funeral package listed a July 4–12 window, but no formal date had been announced. Until an official source confirms the schedule, this report should be treated with caution.
