The process of appointing Iran's successor halted due to security reasons

The process of appointing the successor to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been postponed due to security-related threats. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The New York Times reported this based on information from Iranian officials. According to the data, concerns about the security of Ayatollah Khamenei's son, Mojtaba Khamenei, have increased following his mention as a potential successor.

For this reason, Tehran is refraining from making an urgent decision on this matter. The report stated that Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz indicated that any new leader appointed by Iran to replace Khamenei could become a "target."

US President Donald Trump called Mojtaba Khamenei an unacceptable candidate and expressed his desire to see a person in Iran who would bring harmony and peace. It is worth noting that on February 28, the US and Israel reportedly launched a military operation against Iranian territory, which subsequently heightened tensions in the region.

Against this backdrop, several countries in the Middle East were forced to temporarily close their airspace.
