Mojtaba Khamenei

The Jerusalem Post's must-listen news roundup with Shifra Jacobs—the top stories, clear and concise. 

Jaber Rajabi, former Iranian official and ex-study partner of supreme leader, shares a warning that Mojtaba Khamenei is a greater threat than his father.

Since his alleged escape, Ahmadinejad has made few public addresses, including a congratulatory message on Mojtaba Khamenei’s rise to supreme leader.

According to Danny Citrinowicz, the appointment is primarily intended to project stability and continuity in the regime. "Under normal circumstances... We would not have seen Mojtaba appointed."

Khamenei’s financial agent, Ali Ansari, has circumvented sanctions, laundered money for the IRGC and the regime, and financed the IRGC and its proxy groups.

Critics of the regime say the lack of public appearances raises questions about who is actually directing Iran’s government.

Asked in an interview on Monday evening about the possibility of negotiations with Tehran, Trump told Fox he heard Tehran wanted to talk badly.

Trump considers ending the US military campaign in Iran sooner due to rising oil prices and political pressure, despite military success.

The real estate products were allegedly bought with the help of Ali Ansari, 57, an Iranian banker connected to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

Trump claims operations against Iran are ahead of schedule, stating the regime has "nothing left" militarily. He also supports removing Iran's new leader if demands aren't met.
