Vice-presidential election: Celebrations in Jhunjhunu on victory of Jagdeep Dhankhar

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made a dramatic and unverified claim that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei may no longer be alive, stating there are “many signs” to suggest so. He offered no public evidence to support the assertion. The remarks come amid escalating tensions involving Israel, the United States, and Iran. In a direct appeal to Iranian citizens, Netanyahu urged them to “flood the streets” and seize what he called a once-in-a-generation opportunity to topple the regime. Tehran has not officially responded to the claim, raising concerns of further regional destabilisation.
