US-Israel war with Iran: Is long-term peace possible? | The Global Story

О видео

The US and Iran have launched new strikes against one another throughout this week. Meanwhile, the coffin of Ali Khamenei, Iran’s former supreme leader killed by Israel in February, has been on a procession tour this week of holy sites in Iraq and Iran. Huge crowds gathered wherever it went, the coffin was passed over a sea of hands, and three of Khamenei’s sons wept over the coffin in Tehran. US President Donald Trump says he’s “number one on the kill list for Iran”. The peace between the US and Iran is fragile, at best. At worst, it could be over. We speak to Parham Ghobadi, from the BBC’s Persian Service.
