Khamenei's body arrives in Mashhad for burial after week of processions

The body of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei arrives in Mashhad for burial after a week of processions. The burial ceremony is delayed due to an overwhelming crowd, not US airstrikes as claimed by Iranian state media. Mashhad, Khamenei's hometown, is a religious site housing the shrine of Imam Reza.
