During a funeral service for Khamenei in Iran, a eulogist publicly called for the death of Donald Trump. Euronews reported that the inflammatory statement was made amid ongoing geopolitical tensions between the two nations.

The call follows comments made by Donald Trump in January 2026. At that time, the former US president stated he had issued firm instructions to ensure Iran would be wiped off the face of the Earth should the country attempt to assassinate him.
