DUBAI: Israel has destroyed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s bunker in Tehran, which is still used by senior Iranian officials after his assassination, Israeli media reported on Friday.
Israel’s military said 50 aircraft targeted the secret underground complex, spread over several blocks in the heart of Tehran, with over 100 munitions after receiving surveillance and intelligence reports, Jerusalem Post reported.
Some Iranian leaders were inside the subterranean complex when it was destroyed, Israeli media said.
“The underground military bunker, which was located beneath the regime’s leadership compound in the center of Tehran, was intended to be used by the supreme leader of the Iranian regime as a secure emergency command center,” the army said.
“Khamenei was eliminated before he could use the bunker during operation ‘Roaring Lion’ but the compound continued to be used by senior Iranian regime officials.”
