Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s plane has landed in Tehran. He announced this on his Facebook page.

At Tehran’s Mehrabad International Airport, Pashinyan was received by Iranian Vice President Seyed Hamid Pourmohammadi.

On July 2, Armenia’s prime minister told reporters that he would travel to Iran on July 3 and return the same day. He said meetings with Iran’s leadership were planned during the visit.

On the morning of July 3, Ali Khamenei’s body was transferred to Tehran, where Iranians began paying their final respects to the ayatollah, Sputnik Armenia reports.

Farewell ceremonies are planned in several cities across the Islamic Republic and will continue until July 9. Representatives of about 100 countries are expected to attend the mourning events.

In Tehran, the ceremonies will take place on July 4-6, followed by Qom on July 7. On July 8, Khamenei’s body is expected to be taken to Iraq so that Shiite Muslims can pay their final tribute. On July 9, the ayatollah will be buried in his hometown of Mashhad.

Khamenei was killed on the first day of U.S.-Israeli strikes, on February 28. The news was officially confirmed on March 1. After his death, his son Mojtaba became Iran’s new supreme leader. Due to injuries and security considerations, he has not appeared in public so far but has delivered several addresses to the Iranian people.
