Ali Khamenei Funeral: 1989, Then 2020- Why Iran Fears Burial 'Crowd Disaster' As Memories Haunt On February 28, 2026, Iran's then Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed in a dramatic US-Israeli operation, triggering a devastating Middle east war. Iran reacted, launched missile and drone attacks on Gulf nations and Israel. After weeks of fighting, the conflict was brought to a halt following a US-Iran ceasefire agreement.

Authorities in Tehran are planning an unprecedented security operation for Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's funeral, aiming to prevent a repeat of the deadly crowd crushes that overshadowed the funerals of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini in 1989 and General Ghasem Soleimani in 2020.
