At Khamenei's farewell, there were calls to kill Trump: the US president responded

The article reports on the funeral ceremony of Iran’s former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed along with his family during U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on February 28. It highlights remarks made by a poet at the event, who called for the assassination of President Donald Trump, framing it as an 'obligation.' The poet's comments were met with applause from the crowd, suggesting widespread support for such views. The article also notes the absence of Iran’s new leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, who has not appeared publicly since his appointment and was reportedly injured in the attacks. U.S. President Trump responded to the emotional reactions of mourners, questioning their authenticity, while journalists on site described the grief as genuine. The piece provides background on the attack, including the destruction of Khamenei’s residence and the confirmed deaths of several high-ranking Iranian officials.
