Based on CIA intelligence, the fighter jets of the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) struck the Leadership House in Tehran eliminating the Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his close team.

Among the leaders identified for elimination were Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader, the commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, Iran’s Defense Minister, the Head of Intelligence Organisation of IRGC, Iran’s armed forces Chief of Staff (Artesh), Head of Foreign Intelligence Division, Chief of the Security Branch, Director of Counterterrorism Operations, and an Adviser overseeing the War Portfolio with Israel.

Due to meticulous development of intelligence, most of the targets were successfully eliminated by Israel and U.S.

Final part of the LTTE Origin Story Series: "If a terrorist is arrested or surrenders, we should work on them to restore their mind back to before they were radicalised. That is called mainstreaming their ideology."

With this video, we arrive at the end of this series. It has certainly got many of you sharing your thoughts and comments! I will be sharing more in the future. So, if you are interested in learning more about terrorism and the implications for global security, follow my pages on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn. I am now on TikTok too.
