Footage showing the ruins of the compound of former Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei was released on Wednesday by the supreme leader's website.

The footage was shared by several pro-regime outlets, including the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-run Fars News Agency.

The short 50-second clip shows what appears to be rubble within the compound, warped support beams, and other elements buried under mounds of dirt in "Imam Khomeini's Husseiniyah at the Leader's residence," a prayer room belonging to the supreme leader, attached to their official residence.

It concluded by showing footage of the former supreme leader.

The compound was destroyed on February 28 at the start of a joint operation between the United States and Israel against Iran, with Khamenei being killed in the strike.

While satellite footage of the destroyed compound was released shortly after the strike, a view from the interior was not released until now.

Khamenei funeral procession arrives in Iraq

The multi-day funeral procession for Khamenei arrived in Iraq earlier on Wednesday, with Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi and senior Iraqi officials receiving the coffin at Najaf International Airport, according to state TV.

Najaf is the burial place of Imam Ali, the Prophet Mohammad's cousin and son-in-law, giving the area special significance for Shi'ite Muslims.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Shi'ite religious figures joined Zaidi at the airport to participate in the ceremonies.

The procession, which began in Tehran on Friday, moved through Hom before its arrival in Iraq. It is due to continue onward to Iraq's shrine city of Karbala before returning to Iran for burial in Mashhad.
