Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is reportedly anticipating his own "martyrdom" as tensions escalate with the United States and the threat of a possible military strike looms. Inside the inner circle of Iran’s leadership, Khamenei has entrusted Ali Larijani, former nuclear envoy and influential strategist, with the central role of crisis management, steering the regime through its most critical hour. As Iran faces the aftermath of a 12-day conflict with Israel, Larijani emerges as the key channel for diplomatic engagement with President Donald Trump, while simultaneously overseeing wartime command and the regime`s national survival strategy. The reshuffling includes former Revolutionary Guards commanders taking critical positions, ensuring succession planning, leadership protection and continuity amid looming threats of US and Israeli strikes.
