Mojtaba Khamenei, the newly appointed Supreme Leader of Iran, released a message thanking those who attended his father's funeral. In his written statement, he strongly vowed to avenge the death of Ali Khamenei.
The former leader, Ali Khamenei, was killed during joint US and Israeli strikes late last February. Mojtaba warned that those responsible for this assassination will not be allowed to live in peace.
The Assembly of Experts appointed Mojtaba as the successor shortly after the incident. However, he has not yet appeared in public and missed the funeral ceremonies due to severe security concerns.
