1:58Now PlayingThe funeral procession for Iran's former Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has begun its journey through Tehran.
Thousands of people have gathered in the Iranian capital, with crowds seen waving flags and holding up pictures of the late ayatollah.
Khamenei, who ruled Iran for more than 35 years, was killed in US-Israeli air strikes in February - his funeral began on Friday, and events are planned over the coming week.
A fragile ceasefire between the US and Iran is currently holding while talks on a permanent peace deal continue - Axios quoted US President Donald Trump as saying that talks had been paused for events surrounding the funeral.
