Mourners at Khamenei funeral procession in Tehran vow 'revenge'

A truck carrying Iranian late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's flag-draped coffin, crept through crowds of black-clad mourners in Tehran, who reached out to touch the grating. Some threw scarves and other items for attendants to brush against the coffin, a common practice in Iran seen as a blessing. Attendants sprayed misted water across the crowds to cool them in the summertime temperatures. (AP video shot by Saeed Sarmadi)
