انَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ

{Indeed, to Allah we belong, and to Him we all return}

The martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution, the Wali Al-Faqih, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Hosseini Khamenei, will now be buried at the holy shrine of Imam Reza (ع) in Mashhad, where he will remain.

With this, he has returned to his Lord, and all funeral proceedings have now been concluded.

May Allah have mercy on his soul, make his abode comfortable and serene, and elevate his rank in Heaven among the Prophet (s) and his blessed Family.

🇮🇷| Iran’s IRIB denies reports of explosions in Bandar Abbas, Qeshm, Sirik, or Jask as of this moment.

@Middle_East_Spectator

—❗️🇮🇷 BREAKING: Initial unconfirmed reports of a terrorist attack in Mashhad

Reportedly, a gunman opened fire upon IRGC members.

This news has not been confirmed.

@Middle_East_Spectator

The news is possibly true.

Attack on an IRGC checkpoint in Mashhad is what’s being said.

—❗️🇮🇷 CONFIRMED: A terrorist opened fire on IRGC / Basij members in the Sarfarazan area of Mashhad

The gunman carried a Kalashnikov rifle, and initial reports indicate there are at least two martyrs.

The shooting took place on the southern outskirts of Mashhad and not near the funeral.

The chapter of Khamenei is closed.

The chapter of Khamenei begins.

—❗️🇮🇷 BREAKING: ‘The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, will hold a commemorative prayer for his late father, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, at the shrine of Fatemeh Masumeh in Qom, tomorrow after Maghrib and Ishaa prayers’ – Tasnim

@Middle_East_Spectator

— NOTE: In Farsi, the wording is slightly ambiguous, it seems that Seyyed Mojtaba might attend (that’s how I interpreted it), but it can also mean ‘at his invitation’ or something in that sense. In other words, his attendance is not fully confirmed.

— 🇮🇷 UPDATE: IRIB reports that the event will be held ‘on behalf’ of Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, and that he will not attend in person

@Middle_East_Spectator

Not appearing is the right choice. They’ll kill him any chance they get.

If he ever makes an appearance, it shouldn’t be announced in advance.

—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 BREAKING: President Trump says the ceasefire with Iran is over

He also says Iran asked the U.S. to continue talks, to which Trump agreed.

@Middle_East_Spectator

There is no ceasefire in Iran.

There is no ceasefire in Lebanon.

The sanctions waiver on Iranian oil was cancelled after only ~2 weeks.

Not a single dollar of frozen Iranian assets has been released so far.

Trump openly declared the ceasefire is no longer in effect, and threatened to kill Iranian negotiators.

Why exactly are we still pretending there is an MoU?
