Iranian authorities have announced the award of a possible US President Donald Trump to broadcast live television footage of the assassination of General Qasem Soleimani on Friday.
At the funeral, Iranian state officials announced that $ 1 would be collected from 80 million Iranians nationwide, giving a total of $ 80 million to whoever killed the US president.
Soleimani, an Iranian military commander, was killed Friday in an American drone strike on his convoy at Baghdad airport.
The attack has led to a larger conflict between Washington and the Republic of Iran.
"This is a declaration of war, which means that if anyone hesitates, he will lose," the Iranian prime minister said.
Meanwhile, senior leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei pledged on Friday that Iran would "avenge" the death of its general.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said if there was an Iranian attack on Washington, the United States would respond with a legal strike against the attack.
Soleimani's assassination was not universally applauded by Democrats.
