Sunday, March, 1 2026 - Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was k!lled in US-Israeli strike Saturday, February 28, as part of a massive joint military operation between the U.S. and Israel, Israel's ambassador to Washington told U.S. officials.
US and Israeli forces attacked Iran in what the two
countries described as a 'pre-emptive' strike against a Tehran government
intent on developing nuclear weapons. The attack also prompted retaliation from
Iran, with missiles reported to have targeted Israel and countries across the
Middle East.
According to CNN, an Israeli official confirmed to Axios
that Khamenei is de@d and his body was recovered from his destroyed compound,
according to Israeli intelligence.
Some of the first strikes on Iran appeared to hit areas
around the offices of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
It wasn’t immediately clear whether the 86-year-old leader
was in his offices when the attack occurred, and his de@th was not confirmed
until several hours after the attack.
Khamenei has ruled since 1989 and held ultimate power as he
continued to shape Iran’s Islamic Republic after the revolution in 1979.
