Update: Earlier today, an Iranian spokesperson said something to the effect that the last time he looked, the Ayatollah was alive. Iranian state media confirmed the death of Ali Khamenei. The president and other top Iranians were also targets.
Senior Israeli security officials told Epoch Magazine in Israel that Iranian leader Ali Khamenei was killed in the US-Israeli strikes. They “destroyed the compound of Khamenei.”
Iran has not confirmed. However, the leadership is calling on its allies to fight the US.
NewsNation Report
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic, was killed in strikes by the U.S. and Israel on Saturday.
A senior Israeli official told Reuters on Saturday that Khamenei died. Iran has yet to announce his death.
On Saturday morning, the United States and Israel launched joint missile attacks against Iran’s capital city of Tehran in what the Department of War has dubbed “Operation Epic Fury.”
Fox is now reporting Khamenei is dead. He murdered his own people
BREAKING: Supreme Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei is dead, according to Fox News.

In 2024, Khamenei was also reportedly killed. Obviously, he wasn’t. There are no official reports yet.
I hope the celebrations we see in the clip below aren’t premature:

Robby Starbuck still disagrees with Middle East wars, but will always vote for America to win.
Early this morning, the United States went to war with Iran. I’ve not changed my mind about Middle East wars. They’ve been killing each other over there for the entirety of human history and they’ll likely continue to do so forever.
While I personally have opposed such a war,… pic.twitter.com/7VgRrKjuVC
