President Donald Trump said last week that Mojtaba Khamenei would be "unacceptable," and Israel has vowed to target whoever was made Iran's new highest authority.

Iran’s new supreme leader survived US and Israeli air strikes because he stepped outside for a walk in his garden minutes before his home was hit by missiles.

The weeklong fight over Iran’s next leader pitted the Revolutionary Guards against moderates. The generals won, but only over spirited resistance.

Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei provided a statement for the first time since U.S.-Israeli strikes killed his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The late Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei reportedly was wary of his son, newly elected Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, succeeding him, according to U.S. intelligence reports.

DUBAI, March 16 (Reuters) - The Israeli military said on Monday it had destroyed a plane used by Iran's late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei at Tehran's Mehrabad airport overnight. It said the aircraft had been used by senior Iranian officials and military figures to travel domestically and internationally and coordinate with allied countries.

The second son of the late supreme leader keeps a low profile. But he's long been viewed as wielding his power behind the scenes, from crushing dissent to influencing presidential elections.

A leaked audio reveals how Iran’s new supreme leader narrowly escaped death minutes before missiles struck his family residence.
