Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed following huge Israeli-US airstrikes, it has been claimed. Iranian state media earlier denied reports that the dictator is dead, adding that Khamenei is safe and sound.
However, reports — not independently confiremd by the Express — suggest otherwise. Channel 12 in Israel, citing a source, claimed Iran's supreme leader is "almost certainly dead". While an Israeli source told Reuters that Khamenei is not only dead, but his body "has been found."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also hinted Khamenei could have been killed, saying: "The plan to destroy Israel no longer exists, and there is a high likelihood that the tyrant Khamenei does not either."
The US and Israel launched strikes across Iran, with Donald Trump calling on the people of Iran to overthrow the government.
