Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says there are many signs that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader, may no longer be alive.
On Saturday, the United States and Israel had launched missile strikes on Iran, while Israel described the attack as “pre-emptive”.
The Israeli defence minister Israel Katz said the strike was part of a move to “remove threats against the State of Israel”.
Recall that Israeli forces backed by the United States conducted coordinated military strikes against key Iranian targets, including the area around Khamenei’s compound in Tehran.
According to the Israeli authorities, the strike killed a number of important Iranian government figures.
Iran retaliated by attacking US sites in the Middle East with missiles. According to reports, Iranian missiles have struck targets in Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates.
Netanyahu stated that “all indications show this tyrant is no longer with us” in response to the development.
Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, had previously disputed Khamebei’s death, claiming the nation’s top leader was “safe and sound.”
Araghchi said that trying to change the country’s regime is “mission impossible”.
But Israeli media said Khamenei’s body has been recovered after his killing.
