Meanwhile, Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has shifted himself to a safe bunker in view of the ever -increasing threat. According to a report by The New York Times, Khamenei has given priority to his safety and has decided the names of three senior clerics as a potential successor.
The report also stated that Khamenei has also started selecting new names to replace its top military officers killed in Israeli attacks recently.
