Iranian Telegram channels have released additional footage showing a funeral procession in the city of Qam, as public mourning events for the late Supreme Leader continue. The video, which surfaced Tuesday afternoon, adds to a week of large-scale funeral ceremonies across Iran.
A new video circulating on Iranian Telegram channels on Tuesday afternoon shows a funeral procession in the city of Qam, adding to the extensive visual record of mourning events following the death of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. The footage emerges after The Zioneer reported at 11:00 Jerusalem that funeral events in Qom had concluded and the body would be transferred to Iraq's holy cities. The precise timing and location of the new footage within the procession schedule are not independently verifiable — it may be from the earlier Qom ceremonies or a separate local event.
Dated antecedents: The Zioneer's first dispatch on Tuesday at 11:00 Jerusalem reported an unconfirmed N12 claim that Najaf airport was preparing to receive Khamenei's coffin. A simultaneous report from analyst Yair Goldblatt said Najaf was preparing for a ceremony. By 11:00, Iranian authorities announced the conclusion of Qom events and the body's transfer to Iraq. The progression moved from an unconfirmed source to official confirmation.
Attributed background: As The Zioneer reported on Sunday (July 5, 23:52 Jerusalem), earlier funeral footage showed crowds chanting 'Death to America, Death to Israel.' Additional footage from Qom on Tuesday (12:10 Jerusalem) showed mourners carrying flags and calling for the assassination of President Trump. The coffins were brought to Jamkaran Mosque for prayers earlier Tuesday (10:43 Jerusalem).
What remains open: The exact context of the new footage — whether it is a continuation of the Qom ceremonies or a separate local event in Qam — is unclear. The source is a single Iranian the source, and the video has not been independently corroborated.
