【Is the New Interim Supreme Leader of Iran Killed Hours After Taking Office?】
According to a report by India's "Sunday Express", on March 2, social media suddenly spread news that Iran's interim supreme leader Alavi was killed, which is quite surprising. The actions of the United States and Israel are too fast!
On February 28, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Khamenei, who had been in power for decades, was beheaded along with dozens of military and political elites. Iran quickly responded, announcing on March 1 the establishment of an interim leadership committee to lead the country, and also announced that 67-year-old senior cleric Alavi, a close associate of Khamenei, would temporarily serve as the acting supreme spiritual leader.
However, on March 2, it was suddenly reported that Alavi, who had taken office less than a day, was killed in an Israeli air strike. According to messages circulating on social media, Alavi was killed within a few hours of becoming the interim supreme leader. So far, Israel has not confirmed this news, and Israeli media have not provided further explanations. The Iranian authorities have also not responded to this news, and "Iran International," which has long tracked insider information about Iran, has not given any related statements. At this point, we can only wait and see what happens next.
However, if Alavi were indeed killed, it would not have a significant impact on Iran's current power structure, because the actual manager of the country is Larijani, who had already been given the power by Khamenei before his death. However, Alavi's quick demise raises doubts: How deeply has Iran been infiltrated? Will anyone dare to take over the position of supreme leader again in the future?
