Ayatollah Khamenei dies at 86, marking the end of an era
Let us tell you that Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has recently died at the age of 86 in a precise and devastating attack carried out by the US and Israel. Khamenei, who has been at the helm of power in the Islamic Republic of Iran since 1989, spent decades establishing his strong religious authority in the country and made every effort to make Iran a powerful regional superpower. Throughout his tenure, he was constantly at loggerheads with Israel and the US over Iran's controversial nuclear program. Furthermore, he faced serious allegations of brutally suppressing the voices of protesters demanding democracy in his own country.
Who will now hold power in Iran? The suspense over the successor remains.
Following the Supreme Leader's sudden death, the biggest question now is who will assume power in Iran. According to the rules, Iran's 88-member Assembly of Experts will now elect Khamenei's successor. This powerful assembly, comprised primarily of hardline and influential clerics, decides the country's future. However, amid this immense turmoil and war-like atmosphere, no clear successor has yet been put forward, further deepening the suspense within the corridors of power.
