00:15Anti-American anger erupted during the funeral ceremonies for Iran's late Supreme Leader
00:21Ayatollah Ali Khamenei as mourners in Tehran staged dramatic displays targeting U.S. President
00:29Donald Trump. During the massive funeral processions on July 6th, scenes from Tehran
00:35showed crowds carrying anti-U.S. banners, chanting against America and Israel and directing their
00:42anger toward Trump. In one of the most striking moments, mourners at Imam Hussein Square displayed
00:49an effigy of Trump hanging from a mock gallows during the procession. Another incident unfolded
00:55as the crowd passed beneath a bridge where participants attacked a large billboard featuring
01:01Trump's image. Videos circulating online showed people throwing objects at the billboard before
01:08tearing away parts of Trump's face from the display. The billboard reportedly carried anti-American
01:14messages linked to the U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, reflecting the deep hostility that has
01:20intensified following the conflict. Crowds were also heard chanting slogans against the United
01:26States and Israel during the ceremonies, while some speakers made aggressive statements targeting Trump.
01:36The scenes came as millions of mourners gathered across Iran to honor Khamenei, who Iranian officials
01:43described as a martyr following his death in a U.S.-Israeli airstrike. The funeral events were among
01:49the largest public gatherings in Iran in recent years, with ceremonies held in Tehran and other major
01:56religious sites. The anti-Trump displays highlighted the continuing tensions between Washington and Tehran,
02:04even as both sides faced pressure over possible future negotiations and regional stability.
02:10U.S. President Donald Trump had acknowledged the scale of the funeral turnout while suggesting that
02:16diplomatic options remained possible alongside warnings that military action could resume if
02:22agreements fail. Analysts say the demonstrations reflect both public anger over the conflict and the
02:30Iranian leadership's effort to project defiance during a sensitive transition period. With Iran's new
02:36leadership taking shape after Khamenei's death, the dramatic scenes from the funeral underline how deeply
02:43U.S.-Iran tensions remain entrenched.
