        "content": "<p>Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been reported dead\nin an alleged attack on Tehran attributed to the United States and\nIsrael, according to Israeli journalist Amit Segal of N12News. The\nreport indicates that Ahmadinejad was eliminated overnight, with the\nrevelation being particularly significant given that he was reportedly\nunder house arrest following an attempted coup several weeks prior.\nHowever, Iranian state media has yet to provide official commentary on\nthese claims.<\/p>\n<p>Ahmadinejad served as Iran\u2019s president from 3 August 2005 to 3 August\n2013. Before assuming the presidency, he held positions as Governor of\nArdabil Province and Governor of Tehran.<\/p>\n<p>In his foreign policy orientation, Ahmadinejad adopted a conservative\nstance, harshly criticising the administration of George W. Bush Jr.,\nwhilst advocating for strengthened relations between Iran and Russia as\nwell as Arab nations. He repeatedly made strong statements against\nIsrael and denied the Holocaust. In 2022, he expressed opposition to\nRussia\u2019s large-scale invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>The reported death of Ahmadinejad follows the confirmed deaths of\nIran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and senior military\ncommanders in recent military operations. Iranian state media agencies\nFars and Tasnim confirmed Khamenei\u2019s death after US President Donald\nTrump announced the Supreme Leader had been eliminated in a large-scale\nmilitary operation. Following these strikes on 28 February, several\narmed forces commanders, including the Chief of Staff and Defence\nMinister, were also reported killed.<\/p>\n<p>Iran has appointed Ayatollah Alireza Arafi, a senior cleric, as\ninterim Supreme Leader following Khamenei\u2019s death. Ali Larijani,\nsecretary of Iran\u2019s Supreme National Security Council, stated that the\nAssembly of Experts would shortly begin the process of selecting a new\nSupreme Leader.<\/p>\n<p>Iran has strongly denied US President Trump\u2019s allegations that Tehran\nis developing long-range missiles capable of reaching the United States\nand pursuing military nuclear ambitions.<\/p>",
