Lapid: Israel should have targeted Iran's energy infrastructure

From the Prayer Ground to North of the City: Why Two Faces of Tehran Shared One Message? The funeral procession of Ayatollah Sayed Ali Khamenei, on its second day, took on more pronounced political dimensions. According to Ensaf News citing The Guardian, the massive turnout of people and harsh slogans against America and Donald Trump transformed the ceremony from a mourning ritual into a display of "social resilience" and the Islamic Republic's resolve following the recent conflict. Many attendees, carrying red flags, dressed in shrouds, and chanting slogans such as "No compromise, no surrender" or "Revenge only," effectively responded to Trump's perception of Iranian society and emphasized the country's message of resistance and independence.

• At the same time, social differences cannot be denied; on one hand, the crowds of mourners from Tehran and various cities who attended the ceremony, and on the other hand, the normal flow of life in some areas of North Tehran.. However, conversations with a number of citizens show that even some government critics condemn foreign attacks and regard it as a factor strengthening nationalist sentiment and defending Iran's territorial integrity; although they continue to emphasize the necessity of domestic reforms.
