Funeral prayers were held today for the four members of Khamenei’s family — including his 14-month-old granddaughter — who were assassinated in a joint US-Israeli strike on February 28, Al Jazeera reported.

Footage shared by Iran’s Tasnim news agency shows her smaller conffin placed besides her grandfather’s during funeral proceedings. Her mother is also among those being mourned today.
