TEHRAN-(MaraviPost)-US President Donald Trump has claimed that Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is dead, describing him as “one of the most evil people in history”.
Trump made the announcement on his Truth Social platform, saying the outcome represents “justice for the people of Iran” and was the result of advanced surveillance capabilities and cooperation with Israel.
However, the claim has sparked intense debate, with Iranian state media dismissing the reports as “mental warfare” and “Zionist fabrications”.
The official X account of Ayatollah Khamenei issued a cryptic post, sparking speculation about whether it’s a pre-scheduled “dead man’s switch” or a sign that the Supreme Leader survived the attack.
The Strike
The alleged death of Khamenei comes after a joint US-Israeli operation targeting Iran’s military and government sites, including the Supreme Leader’s Tehran compound.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the strike as a “pre-emptive strike” against an “irreversible threat”.
Global Reactions
The international community is on high alert, with the US and Israel vowing to continue military operations until objectives are achieved.
Meanwhile, Iran has launched retaliatory strikes against US military bases in the Middle East.
As the situation unfolds, questions remain about the future of Iran’s leadership and the implications for global stability.
With no official confirmation from Tehran, the world waits with bated breath for further updates.
