According to the ISNA news agency, thousands of people attended the state-organized funeral of the high-ranking officer in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The 63-year-old Zahedi, his deputy and five other IRGC officers were killed in an airstrike on the Iranian embassy compound in the Syrian capital Damascus on Monday.
