Iran's Supreme Leader Funeral Amid Regional Tensions
Iran has begun a days-long state funeral for Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who died in a US-Israeli attack, with millions attending and chanting for revenge against the United States and Israel.
This massive mourning event is seen as a demonstration of strength by Iran's new leadership amidst heightened regional tensions.
Meanwhile, the U.S. has indicated a willingness to continue negotiations with Iran and reportedly warned Israel against plotting to assassinate Iranian leaders.
Further complicating the regional landscape, Israel is redrawing its border strip in southern Lebanon, and Hamas has again displayed its flags, threatening a "new October 7."
Amid these developments, Iran's regime is reportedly considering building a nuclear bomb, making the future of nuclear negotiations a critical watch point.
