Mojtaba Khamenei has remained absent from the funeral ceremonies of his father, Ali Khamenei, as the events in Tehran enter their second day.
The capital is witnessing large-scale mourning rituals, with thousands of participants and senior Iranian officials attending the proceedings. The funeral prayers are being led by 97-year-old cleric Jaafar Sobhani.
Despite expectations surrounding his possible appearance, there has been no confirmation or indication that Mojtaba Khamenei will take part in any of the six days of official ceremonies.
His continued absence is drawing attention, particularly as he has not been seen publicly since the reported U.S.-Israeli strike that killed his father on February 28, the opening day of the conflict between Iran and the two countries.
