The clerical body tasked with selecting the next supreme leader has reached a decision but the name hasn’t been announced, Iranian media reported.

Israel threatened to target anyone who succeeds or seeks to appoint a successor to Iran’s deceased Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The Israeli military issued the warning in a social media post in Farsi on X, as the clerical body in charge of picking the new Iranian leader reportedly reached a decision on Sunday.

“We warn all those who intend to participate in the successor selection meeting that we will not hesitate to target you. This is a warning!” the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in the post.
