The scene was shared by the Iranian state news agency PressTV and took place on Thursday (9), during the funeral procession of the former Iranian supreme leader in Mashhad. Ali Khamenei's body was buried on Thursday in the holy Iranian city and ended a public funeral that lasted almost a week.
The doll was lifted by a crane, and a crowd of Iranians set fire to the figure's feet. The flames spread, and after some time the doll fell to the ground in pieces. See the video above.
The incident reinforced calls for Trump's death registered during Khamenei's funeral in the Iranian cities of Tehran, Qom and Mashhad, where the supreme leader's body passed. At several moments, the public chanted "death to Trump" and carried posters with the same message.
Ali Khamenei was killed in a US and Israeli airstrike on the first day of the war, on February 28. For the funeral, Iranian authorities preserved his corpse for four months, along with the bodies of family members who also died in the attack.

Israel warns US about Iran's plan to kill Trump
The US press stated on Thursday that Israel shared intelligence information with the US about a new and "specific" plan by Iran to assassinate Trump.
The reports come as new attacks between the US and Iran in recent days have reignited fears of a return to all-out war, and after Trump mysteriously used an old plane to leave Turkey after the NATO summit.
Washington had been monitoring "a constant flow" of intelligence information about possible plans to assassinate Trump, "but Israel's warning was new and concerned a specific plot", CNN reported, citing anonymous sources familiar with the matter.
Similar information was published by the newspaper The Wall Street Journal, which also cited unidentified sources.
Tehran has been promising for years to take revenge on Trump for ordering the assassination of Iranian general Qasem Soleimani in January 2020, during his first term.
