The Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed on 28th February, 2026, during joint US and Israel strikes on Iran. His death was confirmed by the state media of Iran on 1st March, 2026. Iran has declared 40 days of national mourning and a week-long public holiday in the wake of this event. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was 86 years old and he was the Supreme Leader of Iran since 1989 (37 years). The Assembly of Experts will choose the next Supreme Leader of Iran. Meanwhile, US and Israel's war against Iran is likely to continue as their goal is regime change in Iran. Iran is also blocking Strait of Hormuz, which will cause oil prices to rise significantly. Gold is also likely to surge as tensions are rising in the Middle East with every passing moment.
