Iran will hold on Saturday state funerals for senior military commanders and top scientists killed during the country's 12-day war with Israel, official media said.


"The national funeral ceremony for... commanders and scientists martyred in the Zionist regime's aggression will be held on Saturday from 8:00 am (0430 GMT)" in Tehran, official news agency IRNA reported on Wednesday, a day after the warring sides had agreed a ceasefire.


IRNA said that Hossein Salami, the Revolutionary Guards chief killed by Israel on the war's first day on June 13, will be laid to rest on Thursday.
