Netanyahu says there are many signs Iranian supreme leader is no longer with us
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday evening that there are many signs that Irans supreme leader is no longer with us, while stopping short of saying definitively that he was killed.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi earlier told NBC that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other high-ranking officials in Iran are still alive, as far as he knew. Iran has not published a video of Khamenei since the strikes began Saturday morning.
CNN previously reported that Khamenei was one of the targets of the opening salvo of strikes on Iran along with other senior leaders, but Israeli sources said there was no confirmation that Khamenei had been killed.
There are many signs that this tyrant is no longer with us, Netanyahu said, adding that Israel had destroyed his compound.

I take this report with the same salt I put on Iranian claims, but if it is true, it may be a case of be careful what you wish for. In the middle of fighting it is very likely a more radical leader will take charge
