BREAKING: Iran Names Khamenei s Son Mojtaba Supreme Leader As War Escalates | US-Iran War Iran s Assembly of Experts has officially named Mojtaba Khamenei as the country s new Supreme Leader, succeeding his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was recently killed in a joint US-Israeli airstrike. The unprecedented father-to-son transfer of power occurs as the devastating US-Iran war enters its ninth day, bringing the Middle East to a boiling point. US President Donald Trump has strongly condemned the appointment, calling the 56-year-old cleric 'unacceptable' and a 'lightweight,' while continuing to demand Iran's unconditional surrender. With the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the Axis of Resistance now under Mojtaba's command, President Trump has refused to rule out deploying American ground troops as US and Israeli forces intensify their strikes on Tehran's military and energy infrastructure.
