The Iranian leaders killed in Israeli-US war
Over the course of the US-Israeli war on Iran, waves of airstrikes killed an entire echelon of the Islamic republic's political and military elite, starting with Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. President Donald Trump had claimed in March that the campaign had achieved "regime change", but Iran showed resilience in rapidly replacing killed leaders and keeping up the war against the US and Israel. With Washington and Tehran agreeing on a deal announced on Monday to halt the conflict, here is a recap of some of the key figures killed in the war: Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Khamenei, Iran's number one since 1989, was killed in the first hour of the war on February 28 in a strike on a meeting of senior officials in Tehran that also left his daughter-in-law, daughter and at least one grandchild dead, according to reports. On July 9, Khamenei will be buried in the Imam Reza Shrine in the city of Mashhad following a funeral ceremony there on July 18. PHOTO:...
