On the sixth night of the seventh month of mourning ceremonies for late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, a red revenge flag was raised near the site of his death in Ravak-e Shordust, according to Iranian Telegram channels linked to The Zioneer. The flag is a traditional Shia symbol calling for vengeance. Participants in the ceremonies hoisted it during the night's events.

The reports come as Iran continues its official mourning period for Khamenei, which has included ceremonies across the country. No specific military action or threat has been tied to the flag raising in the current reports.
