Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday claimed there were indications that Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, may no longer be alive following a joint United States–Israeli military operation targeting his compound.
Addressing reporters, Netanyahu said there were “signs” suggesting that Khamenei was “no longer alive,” though he did not provide evidence to substantiate the claim.
He also urged Iranian citizens to rise up, calling on them to “flood the streets and finish the job.”
Veritas News reported that 30 bombs were dropped on the compound of the Iranian Supreme Leader during Saturday’s coordinated operation.
According to Veritas correspondent Adedayo Pelumi, Amit Segal is regarded as close to the Israeli Prime Minister,and he said the strike was extensive and specifically targeted the complex believed to house Khamenei.
One of the sources told CNN Israel had obtained a photo of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s dead body. The second source said an official announcement is being prepared.
Meanwhile, the Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman said that Iran’s president and Supreme Leader are “safe and sound.” But Khamenei has not been seen in public or in videos since the strikes began.
