Tehran indicates Khamenei's son will be named supreme leader as Israel expands Iran strikes Iran on Sunday indicated it had chosen Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's son Mojtaba as his successor, after Israel struck fuel depots in Tehran overnight and the conflict widened after Bahrain said an Iranian attack had damaged one of its desalination plants. "The name of Khamenei will continue," said Ayatollah Hosseinali Eshkevari, a member of the clerical council charged with electing a new leader, in a video published in Iranian media. "The vote has been cast and will be announced soon," Eshkevari said, without providing further details. The council's secretary, Hosseini Bushehri, would announce the successor to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei - who was killed earlier in the conflict - Ahmad Alamolhoda, another cleric, told state media. US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Washington should have a say in the selection. "If he doesn't get approval from us he's not going to last long," he told ABC News.
