Trump:

Khamenei was unable to avoid our Intelligence and Highly Sophisticated Tracking Systems and, working closely with Israel, there was not a thing he, or the other leaders killed along with him, could do.

This is the greatest chance for the Iranian people to take back their Country.

Many IRGC, Military, and Security and Police Forces no longer want to fight and are looking for Immunity.

Reza Pahlavi says Ali Khamenei’s death marks the effective end of the Islamic Republic, calling him a “bloodthirsty tyrant” responsible for thousands of deaths.

He urges military and security forces to abandon the collapsing regime and join the people in a peaceful transition to a free Iran.

Pahlavi calls on Iranians to stay alert and prepare for mass street mobilization, saying the moment for decisive action is near and that victory and freedom are within reach.
