Iran’s transition after Khamenei’s death remains uncertain

The U.S. military base in Saudi Arabia is reportedly under attack following recent U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, which coincided with the death of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Analysts suggest Khamenei’s death represents a significant blow to the Islamic Republic, yet the regime had prepared for such an event, potentially leading to a continuity scenario where a successor maintains existing power structures. The balance of power is expected to remain within a tight circle of clerics and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
