Ground report: Massive crowd gathers at Azadi Square to bid farewell to Khamenei

Lakhs of mourners have gathered at the Azadi Square in Tehran to bid a final farewell to their former Supreme Leader, late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who died in a joint US-Israeli airstrike on February 28. As Iran holds a week-long series of state funeral processions to honour its former Supreme Leader, India Today's Sumit Choudhary brings this ground report from the Azadi Square. A massive symbolic hand representing the late leader, with his identifying ring from the February 28 joint US-Israeli airstrikes, has been constructed at Azadi Square, symbolising their revolution. The funeral is marked by massive crowds, anti-America slogans, and calls for revenge against US President Donald Trump.
