"There are 'growing indications' that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in the first wave of the US and Israeli strikes earlier today, it is being claimed.
"Israeli media outlet Channel 12 said unnamed Israeli sources had revealed there were 'growing indications' the leader had been killed during this morning's air strikes or that he was 'hurt at the very least'.
"Officials had earlier reported that the strikes had caused 'very significant harm' to the leadership of the Iranian regime and its military commanders.
"Khamenei has not been heard from since the US and Israel launched their dual attack on Iran on Saturday morning.

"The initial blasts are believed to have taken place close to the offices of Khamenei in the capital, Tehran.
"The results of the strikes are unclear, an Israeli official said, with earlier reports suggesting that the supreme leader had been moved out of Tehran to a secure location.
"Both Khamenei's palace and compound in Tehran are reported to have been completely destroyed in today's operation, but Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghch claimed the Ayatollah is alive 'as far as I know'." . . . More...
