Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei died in a U.S.-Israeli strike; his death sparked regional unrest and a power transition amid escalating tensions.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who died at 86 in a U.S.-Israeli strike on March 1, 2026, will be buried in his birthplace, Mashhad.
A three-member interim council has taken power, while the Assembly of Experts, tasked with selecting his successor, may delay its meeting due to security concerns after its headquarters were struck.
His death triggered widespread protests and violence across Shiite communities in Pakistan, Lebanon, Iraq, and beyond, including attacks on U.S. and UN facilities, missile exchanges between Hezbollah and Israel, and Israeli military mobilization.
While Khamenei was revered as a central religious and political figure, growing regional frustration with Iran’s influence may limit broader sectarian escalation, despite heightened tensions and Iran’s vow to respond without restraint.
