2 days ago
Iran is hitting back after several media outlets reported that Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is in a coma and allegedly named his son, Mojtaba Khamenei, as his successor.
According to Israeli news, the reports came after the Ayatollah’s son – Mojtaba was chosen during a secret meeting back in September, with the assembly facing major pressure to unanimously approve Mojtaba, with alleged threats from Khamenei’s representatives
And while Ayatollah Khamenei named his son his successor it wasn’t because he’s close to death, in fact a recently shared photo on his X account, shows him talking to the Ambassador of Iran in Lebanon at noon on Sunday, in Tehran.
The Iran international reported that a successor was identified because of the risk of assassination the supreme leader faces, not because of health.
