Iran Buries Slain Supreme Leader as Successor Stays Hidden

⚰️ TEHRAN — Iran buries its Supreme Leader while his successor remains invisible. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Mojtaba Khamenei has made no public appearance since his March appointment — his father's funeral is the moment that demands a face. With Mojtaba absent, clerical and IRGC factions each interpret the vacuum differently. Iran is absorbing five US strike waves without a publicly visible Supreme Leader to authorize escalation or restraint. That ambiguity is now a military variable.
