A refrigerated truck carrying branding resembling Finland's K Group became part of the funeral procession for Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, prompting Finnish retailer Kesko to launch an investigation after footage from Iraq spread across international media and social platforms. Reuters video filmed in the Iraqi city of Karbala showed mourners surrounding the refrigerated vehicle before its rear doors opened.

Why is that funny?
Because it’s their great leader and they transport his corpse in a vehicle that doesn’t honour him in any way.
And why do you think humiliating a corpse is funny?
It’s the Iranians humiliating the corpse of their supposed supreme leader. That definitely has a certain irony to it.
What is the irony?
