Mojtaba Khamenei: Iran's New Hardline Leader
Mojtaba Khamenei, a hardline cleric and son of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, has been appointed as the new leader of Iran. Born in 1969, Mojtaba fought in the Iran-Iraq war and holds the rank of hojjatoleslam. Despite never holding an official government job, he has strong ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and was sanctioned by the US in 2019. Critics accuse him of a dynastic power grab, and his hardline stance could deepen tensions in the ongoing conflict with the US and Israel.
