Iran is reportedly considering selecting Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, as its next supreme leader. The Assembly of Experts met several times to discuss the decision and could officially announce the choice as early as March 4.

Mojtaba is seen as a powerful figure within the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps and intelligence circles and has long been mentioned as a potential successor. However, there is concern about internal opposition because hereditary succession is not traditionally endorsed.

Observers suggest the move may indicate rising influence of hardliners in Tehran. Meanwhile, Israel has issued strong warnings, stating that any leader who threatens regional security could be “a target” — heightening regional tensions.

Other potential candidates, including more moderate figures, remain in consideration as Iran prepares for an official announcement.
