Three sons of Iran’s slain leader Khamenei appear at funeral, not his successor

Three sons attend rites, reports cite security fears for his absence in Tehran funeral

Footage from Iranian state media showed late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei's sons – Mostafa, Meysam and Masoud Khamenei – weeping as multiple coffins were carried out into Tehran's Grand Mosalla Sunday.

Khamenei ruled the Islamic republic from 1989 until he was killed aged 86 in an airstrike on the first day of the United States-Israeli war with Iran on February 28.
