BREAKING: Iran's new Supreme Leader is Ayatollah Seyed Mojtaba Khamenei (also commonly referred to as Mojtaba Khamenei or Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei).

He is the second son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who served as Supreme Leader from 1989 until his death in late February 2026 during U.S.-Israeli airstrikes amid the ongoing conflict.

On March 8, 2026, Iran's Assembly of Experts formally elected Mojtaba Khamenei as the third Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic, making him — at age 56 — the country's highest religious and political authority, as well as commander-in-chief of the armed forces.
