The BBC’s Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet reports from Tehran, where a mass state funeral took place on Saturday.

Crowds gathered to mourn the deaths of about 60 people, including military commanders and nuclear scientists, killed during the 12-day conflict with Israel.

The conflict ended with a ceasefire earlier this week, after the US became directly involved by bombing key nuclear sites in Iran.
