Three sons of the Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei prayed next to his coffin Sunday, but the son who was announced as his successor, Mojtaba, was absent.
Ali Khamenei was killed in an airstrike at the start of the Israel-U.S. war against Iran. He and other senior leaders of the Islamic theocracy were killed. Mojtaba, who was reportedly wounded in the strike too, was announced as his successor.
