The coffin of the assassinated supreme leader is being transported from Iraq’s Najaf to Iran’s Mashhad before his burial today, according to Al Jazeera.
The transfer is the last of the funeral ceremonies that have continued for six days across Iran and Iraq, including in the holy cities of Najaf and Karbala.
Mohammad Mohammadi Golpayegani, the head of Khamenei’s office, said the late leader had requested to be buried in Mashhad.
