Iran's Assembly of Experts has confirmed Mojtaba Khamenei, the second-born son of the slain Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as Iran's new supreme leader. Fifty-six-year-old Mojtaba Khamenei took over the position after the death of his father, who was killed on February 28 in American-Israeli strikes on Tehran. According to Slovak sources, he was struck by a further tragedy in connection with the attack besides losing his father – the strikes killed not only his father but also his mother, his wife, and his son. trend.sk ↗
The appointment signals that hardliners in the Iranian regime have retained control despite the cross-border attacks. Lebanon's Hezbollah and the Houthis have pledged allegiance to the new ayatollah. Massive celebrations of support for the new leader took place in central Tehran, with thousands of people expressing support for his appointment. aktuality.sk ↗
Israeli authorities condemned the choice of the new leader, claiming that Mojtaba Khamenei has blood on his hands and is another tyrant. Russian President Vladimir Putin, by contrast, congratulated the new leader and pledged unwavering support. SITA ↗
US President Donald Trump expressed dissatisfaction with the choice, calling it "unacceptable." Israeli intelligence officials say Mojtaba Khamenei was likely injured in a recent airstrike. Trump claims the new Iranian leader "won't last long." Several reports also point to concerns about his ability to effectively lead the country in the current tense situation. hnonline.sk ↗
