Iranians flood into Tehran, waiting hours to bid farewell to supreme leader

More than 10 million people are expected in Tehran for the funeral of Iran’s slain supreme leader. Some Iranians have waited for hours before the official ceremonies, with crowds gathering near the prayer hall in the hope that the doors would open overnight. “We came for the love of our leader,” said Somayye, one of those waiting, adding, “This waiting is a sweet but bitter waiting.”
