Khamenei was killed on the first day of Israeli and U.S. airstrikes against Iran on February 28. The 86-year-old cleric had been at the helm of the \u2060Islamic Republic for 36 \u200byears.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The \u2060funeral arrangements will include ceremonies on July 7 in the holy city of Qom, south of Tehran, \u2060media said.<\/p>\n

Islamic law requires the deceased to be buried \u200bas \u2060soon as possible, and ideally \u200cwithin 24 hours of death, but exceptions are allowed, for example in time of war.<\/p>\n

During his rule, Khamenei built \u200cIran into a powerful anti-U.S. force, spreading \u200cits military sway across the Middle East through proxy forces such as Hezbollah in Lebanon, while using an iron fist to crush outbreaks of \u2060unrest at home.<\/p>\n

Khamenei remained a strong critic of the United States throughout his rule, while successive U.S. administrations tried unsuccessfully to resolve a dispute with Iran over its nuclear programme.<\/p>\n

The airstrike that killed him pulverised his central Tehran compound. His 56-year-old son Mojtaba, who also lost his wife in the \u200cairstrike and was himself injured, succeeded his father \u200bas Supreme Leader but has not been seen in public since the conflict broke out.<\/p>\n

Pakistan\u2019s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said \u200con Saturday that Iran and the \u2060United States had agreed on a framework for \u2060a peace deal after more than three months of war and are \u200cexpected to sign the \u200binitial deal in the \u200cnext 24 hours. <\/p>\n
