Khamenei Name Three Clerics as Successors While Sheltering in Bunker

Since June 13, Israel has carried out attacks across Iran targeting its defense facilities, nuclear programs, and key energy installations amid rising hostilities.
The attacks, which have killed hundreds including top commanders and civilians, prompted Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei to prepare contingency plans for his replacement.
Khamenei has privately named three senior clerics as successor candidates and selected replacements for military leaders lost in the strikes while suspending electronic communications.
Iran cautioned that any involvement by Washington would pose serious risks, as the country tightened internet controls and instructed key officials to remain off the grid for security reasons.
These developments indicate Tehran's intent to maintain regime stability despite internal fears of infiltration and ongoing external military pressure.
