BREAKING: IDF Forces Strike Iranian Supreme Council as Group Gathers to Choose Successor to Late Ayatollah (Video)

On Tuesday, Israeli forces struck the Iranian Supreme Council as they gathered to choose a successor to the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a senior Israeli official told Fox News.

The IDF targeted Iran’s “leadership complex” in central Tehran overnight, describing it as the regime’s “most central and significant headquarters.”

Specific targets included the Presidential Office and the building housing the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), a key body advising the Supreme Leader on national security and foreign policy.

Other elements of the leadership compound used by top officials for meetings, command/control, and related infrastructure.

The IDF stated that around 100 fighter jets dropped over 250 munitions on the complex, following intelligence collection aimed at degrading Iran’s command and control systems.

Fox News’ Trey Yingst reported, “Good morning. I do want to just start with some breaking news here before I show you the scene of one of these cluster munitions impacts just outside of Tel Aviv. But I’m told by a senior Israeli official that the Israelis just struck the Supreme Council gathering where the Iranians were meeting to choose a new Supreme leader.”

“This is a significant development and again speaks to the Israeli intelligence about this war. They just targeted the meeting in Tehran, where what’s left of the leadership was gathering to choose a new Supreme Leader.”

Watch:

On Monday, IDF announced that all senior terrorist leaders of Iran’s Axis of Terror have been eliminated.

Update: Yingst reports that Israel believes it killed multiple Iranian officials counting votes to pick next ayatollah.
