Ali Khamenei

Iran displayed an explicit death threat against Donald Trump on a massive Tehran billboard. The new threats come amid reports of preparations for possible fresh US-Israeli strikes against Iran following the November 3 US midterm elections.

Donald Trump said Washington does not know who is running Iran after wartime strikes gutted its leadership. The remark underscored US uncertainty as both sides weigh diplomacy and the risk of renewed conflict.

Iran’s long history of invasions, sanctions and conflict has fostered a deep resilience, with growing resistance to US pressure and military action. The piece argues that superior firepower cannot break a people who see their struggle as a fight for national honour and freedom, leaving Washington without a clear endgame.

Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei survived two US strikes on Tehran and was pulled from the rubble of a targeted hospital, an Iranian cleric claimed, adding to conflicting reports about Mojtaba's condition.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Iran cannot be bullied into surrender, condemning US strikes on civilian targets. He rejected allegations that Tehran seeks nuclear weapons, said Iran is ready for NPT-based talks, and ruled out immediate direct negotiations with the US.

The broadcast reportedly showed the location of Barron's university, escort vehicles and positions of Secret Service personnel. It also claimed that he communicates privately through voice and text on Xbox away from his security detail.

The announcement comes as questions persist over Khamenei’s limited public appearances since he succeeded his father, Ali Khamenei, as Iran’s supreme leader in March.

A state-backed billboard unveiled in Tehran's Palestine Square shows Donald Trump and his family above US flag-draped coffins with the slogan "Blood for Blood", in one of Iran's most personal public threats against the US president amid escalating tensions.

The Iran-US interim deal has broken down as airstrikes, shipping attacks and the blockade return. The collapse has stalled nuclear negotiations, revived oil sanctions and deepened instability around the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran has installed a giant billboard in Tehran showing Donald Trump lying in an open coffin. It comes amid calls from Iranian hardliners to avenge Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and anger over the Minab school strike.

US President Donald Trump also asserted Iran's military had been crippled, announced a renewed US blockade on Iran, and proposed charging ships for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz.

The New York Times has reported that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad held secret contacts with Israeli intelligence during an alleged regime-change effort. The claims, centred on meetings in Hungary and a failed extraction plan, remain unverified and officially unanswered.

Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, in his first public message since succeeding his father, vowed to avenge Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's killing, calling it "the demand of the nation", even as tensions between Iran and the US continue despite ongoing diplomatic talks.

The United States imposed fresh sanctions on Ali Ansari, a financier linked to Iran's new leader Mojtaba Khamenei, along with 13 individuals and entities, aiming to disrupt financial networks supporting Iran's ruling establishment and the IRGC.

Unclaimed airstrikes struck multiple sites in Iran shortly after the US ended its latest operation. The attacks, Iran's warning to the UAE and new shipping alerts have sharpened Gulf tensions.

Fresh unclaimed airstrikes struck southern Iran soon after the US said its latest attacks were over. The blasts, Iran's warning to the UAE and Israel's renewed threat showed the Gulf crisis remains dangerously fragile.

Ali Khamenei was buried at Mashhad's Shrine of Imam Reza after a week of funeral ceremonies in Iran and Iraq. The burial unfolded amid anti-US chants and continued attention on successor Mojtaba Khamenei's absence from public view.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's burial in Mashhad will link Iran's supreme leadership to his birthplace and the Imam Reza shrine. The move will highlight religious continuity and deepen Mashhad's place in the republic's symbolic order.

Khamenei's funeral has drawn huge crowds even as Iranians describe a country split by grief, anger and fear. His death now sharpens questions over repression, economic distress and the Islamic Republic's future.
