Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu stated Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in a US-Israel missile strike on his Tehran compound, citing 'growing signs' of his death. Netanyahu released a video claiming the compound was destroyed and Khamenei 'no longer alive'. However, no evidence confirms the assassination, and Iranian officials including Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi and Khamenei's office spokesperson Seyyed Mahdi deny the reports, calling it psychological warfare. Satellite images show compound damage, but Khamenei's body has not been publicly confirmed. Iranian officials state the situation is 'under control' and most leadership remains safe.
