Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed in the attacks by the United States and Israel, alongside his top security officials, as Tehran pledges to take “revenge” for the killing of the supreme leader.
Khamenei’s killing is a serious setback for Iran, where more than 200 people have been killed in the attacks across 24 out of 31 provinces since Saturday. Iran’s retaliatory attacks have targeted Israel and neighbouring Gulf countries hosting US military assets.
Khamenei, 86, was killed in the strike at his office in Tehran. The supreme leader’s daughter, son-in-law, and grandson were also killed in the attack.
