Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei confirmed dead after Israeli strike
Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei died following an Israeli strike on Tehran's compound Saturday. Israeli forces confirmed the attack reduced Khamenei's offices to rubble. The strike occurred in downtown Tehran, targeting the leader's headquarters. Khamenei, born April 19, 1939, was the Middle East's longest-serving autocrat and a central figure in the 1979 revolution. At least 40 died in the attack, including at a girls' school in Southern Iran. Nigerian citizens in Iran and Gulf States face safety risks, prompting government advisories. Israeli leaders claim responsibility, while Iran denies Khamenei's death. The strike escalates tensions between Israel, US, and Iran, with Canada and UK joining military action. Will Nigerian citizens in Iran follow safety advisories or remain in place?
