US President Donald Trump said he was surprised by the scale of public mourning following the death of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, saying he had expected widespread public resentment rather than large funeral gatherings.
The body of Iran's slain Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was placed in state in Tehran on Friday as thousands of mourners, senior clerics, government officials and foreign dignitaries gathered to pay their final respects.
