Dynasty Shift in Tehran: Mojtaba Khamenei Confirmed as Successor
TEHRAN – In a historic and swift transition, the Iranian Assembly of Experts has officially designated Mojtaba Khamenei as the nation's third Supreme Leader. The decision follows the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on February 28 during military strikes conducted by the United States and Israel.
According to a report published by the Tasnim News Agency, the Assembly (Majlis-e Khobregan) reached a definitive consensus, appointing the late leader's son with an "overwhelming majority." This appointment marks a pivotal moment for the Islamic Republic, as it navigates a leadership vacuum amidst heightened regional tensions.
