‘A miscalculation’: Iran crosses threshold it ‘wasn’t prepared’ to cross in the past
Sky News Defence Analyst Peter Jennings says he was “surprised” to see the number of states Iran struck in the last 24 hours. “It seems to me what’s happened here is that Iran has crossed a threshold that it wasn’t prepared to cross in the past,” Ms Jennings told Sky News host James Morrow. “It directly attacked Israel. “It’s directly attacking not just the Gulf States and the Emirates, but other Sunni Arab States in the Middle East. “I think that is a miscalculation.”

Tehran teemed with Khamenei mourners, but divisions – and demands for change – remain
As the multipurpose, multinational funeral of Iran's former supreme leader Ali Khamenei moved to the Jamkaran mosque in the holy city of Qom, and then to Najaf in Iraq, Iran's leadership was weighing the mandate it had been given by the millions who have taken to the streets of Tehran over the past three days. Some hailed the moment as a referendum from the streets showing support for the clerical establishment, and called for the strategy of confrontation with the west to be intensified. Others said it was more about a wider national pride that was conditional on demands for change and an end to the war being met.

Tehran home to ‘super villain convention’ to thwart Middle East peace
Former Israeli government spokesperson Eylon Levy likened Tehran to a "super villain convention" working to disrupt Middle East peace. “Iran is now under the control of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and they’re plotting to rebuild their control in the Middle East,” Mr Levy told Sky News host James Macpherson. “What we’re seeing in Tehran and around Iran now is less of a funeral and more of a super villain convention; they’re bringing together all the worst people in the world … to plot together how to thwart the peace process in the Middle East.”

Analysis-Khamenei funeral signals Iran's defiance and new regional order
By Samia NakhoulBEIRUT, July 6 (Reuters) - The funeral of late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was more than a national farewell. The sea of mourners in Tehran sent a message to the United States and Israel that their attempt to break the Islamic Republic had failed. Rather than looking weakened by the war that began with U.S. and Israeli strikes on February 28, Iran presented itself as defiant, unified and determined to shape what comes next.
