Is this the second Khamenei died? Israel posts video of large bombardment of Iranian ‘terror regime’ headquarters in Tehran
This is the moment dozens of Israeli bombs obliterated the ‘headquarters of the Iranian terror regime’ with a devastating airstrike in Tehran.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed yesterday by Israeli airstrikes. It is not yet known whether this was the bombardment that took out the Iranian Supreme Leader.
The video shows multiple explosions in two buildings in Iran‘s capital, Tehran.
The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) posted on X: ‘Watch the first footage from the Air Force’s extensive raid in the heart of Tehran.
‘Attached is footage from the final moments of the destruction of the headquarters of the Iranian terror regime in the heart of Tehran.’
Iran formally confirmed that Khamenei was killed in his home office yesterday. ‘To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return,’ an Iranian news agency said.
Two high-level military leaders – Rear Adm. Ali Shamkhani, and commander of the IRGC Maj. Gen. Mohammad Pakpour – and four of Khamenei’s close family were also killed by airstrikes on Saturday morning.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump were reportedly shown an image of Khamenei’s body after it was recovered from his compound.

Bombs continue to rain down on Iran this morning after Israeli and US forces begun an attack on Iran on Saturday.
Donald Trump has today promised to strike Iran ‘with a force that has never been seen before,’ after the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced they had attacked nearly 30 US military bases across the Middle East on Sunday morning.
The targeted attacks on American assets in the destabilized region are part of Iran’s self-proclaimed ‘most intense offensive operation in history,’ in retaliation for the killing of Islamic State Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Israel announced in the early hours of Sunday that it had begun a new ‘strike wave’ targeting Iran’s ballistic missiles and aerial defence systems, after Iran launched drones and missiles at Tel Aviv, which were intercepted and shot down.
In response, the IRGC said it was carrying out a ‘sixth wave’ of ‘extensive missile and drone’ attacks on 27 US military bases. The extent of the damage is not yet clear.
In the last few hours residents of Saudi Arabia’s capital, Riyadh, reported hearing several loud explosions and saw smoke rising from the city.
