25th Muharram Processions In Kashmir, India

Kashmiri Shia Muslim women pay tribute before a symbolic empty chair draped in black, with a framed portrait of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and the Iranian national flag displayed during a Muharram procession on the 25th day of the Islamic month of Muharram, in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India, on July 11, 2026. The conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States has intensified following recent military operations by the opposing sides. Iran's new Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, pledges to avenge the death of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was buried in the holy city of Mashhad. During the funeral, Iranian state media reports his message of seeking revenge for his father's death and others. Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump warns Iran against any attempt to assassinate him after funeral ceremonies for Ali Khamenei feature numerous English-language banners calling for the deaths of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
