Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has taken extraordinary steps regarding his security amid Israeli attacks.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Death Threat
Given the threat of possible assassination, Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei now communicates with his commanders through a trusted aide instead of speaking directly and electronic communications have been suspended, making it difficult to track him. This information has been given by three Iranian officials who are familiar with his emergency war plans.
Safe in the bunker, full preparations for military succession
It is being told that Khamenei is safely hidden in a bunker and has appointed alternatives to several military commanders to ensure that if his trusted officers are killed, they can be replaced immediately. These officials also revealed that Ayatollah Khamenei has also decided the names of three Supreme Leaders, who can become his successor in the event of his death.
It is being told that this list includes the names of Alireza Arafi ali Asghar Hejazi, Hashim Hussaini Bushhari, and Ali Akbar Velayati. The special thing about these names is that the name of his son Mujtaba Khamenei is not there. Earlier, Khamenei's son was considered his successor. This step is considered to be the biggest sign showing the crisis looming over his three-decade-long rule.
The biggest impact of Israeli attacks is seen in Tehran
Since the attacks started by israel last Friday, Khamenei has taken many extraordinary steps to protect the Islamic Republic. Although this conflict is only a week old, these Israeli attacks are considered to be the biggest military attack on iran since the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s. Tehran, the capital of iran, has been the worst hit by these attacks.
Hospitals, refineries, religious places targeted
The damage caused by Israeli attacks in Tehran in just a few days is said to be more than the damage done by Saddam Hussein in the entire eight-year war. However, after the initial setback, iran has now reorganized and is retaliating every day. In these retaliatory attacks, a hospital, Haifa oil refinery, religious places, and homes have been targeted.
