Tehran: Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei reflected on the magnificent funeral ceremony of the martyred leader of the Revolution, stating that the blessed figure has departed, yet what he left behind as a legacy transcends a mere name or era-it is a heritage of self-belief, the pursuit of dignity, a quest for independence, patriotism, and steadfastness in the face of the storms of adversity.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, a video showing millions of Iranians, mournful yet proud, participating in the farewell and funeral procession of the Islamic Revolution's martyred leader in Tehran has been released. A post on the social media platform X noted that today, in Iran's capital, Iranians bade farewell to a great leader-a figure the likes of whom history has rarely produced. Amidst this unparalleled send-off, prayers are on every lip, and gazes stretch toward the horizon; it is as if history has paused for a moment to turn the page to a new chapter.

Baqaei emphasized that although a blessed figure has departed, what he left behind is far more than just a name or an era. He highlighted that it is a heritage of self-belief, a quest for dignity, a drive for independence, patriotism, and steadfastness in the face of adversity.
