How Ali Khamenei was eliminated:

Israel invested years in penetrating Tehran’s traffic cameras and tracking Khamenei’s bodyguards in preparation for his assassination.

According to two sources familiar with the details, nearly all traffic cameras in Tehran were hacked over a period of years, and the footage was encrypted and transmitted to servers in Tel Aviv and southern Israel. One particular camera provided an especially useful angle, making it possible to understand where the bodyguards routinely parked their vehicles and to study the operational routine inside the secured compound.

Complex algorithms helped gather intelligence on security personnel, including addresses, shift hours, commuting routes, and especially the identities of the senior officials they were assigned to protect. This enabled the construction of what the intelligence community calls a “pattern of life.”

These capabilities were part of a multi-year intelligence operation that paved the way for the elimination. An Israeli intelligence source said: “We knew Tehran the way we know Jerusalem.”

In addition, Israel reportedly disrupted components in approximately ten cellular towers near Pasteur Street, causing phones to display as busy and preventing alerts from being received.

According to the report, the CIA also provided a source who confirmed the timing of the meeting. Israeli fighter jets, which flew for hours to arrive at the precise time and location, launched approximately 30 precision-guided munitions.

Another striking detail is that the strike was carried out in the morning rather than at night, in order to achieve additional tactical surprise.

IMO  What amazing times we live in.  Goes to show how we are all being surveilled .  It is good, but also bad, many would say it is an invasion of privacy.  I agree, but good does come from it.  It’s here to stay.  On a personal note I was one who hated wearing seat belts and didn’t.  If I remember correctly my statement was, quote “the dadgum government has no authority to demand us to do something we don’t want to do!”  Still believe that however, they do have ways to make it happen. Unfortunately. Rh

UPDATE:

Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the Supreme Leader, is ten times more dangerous than his father.

   •   He is the guardian who never leaves his father’s shadow.

   •   He runs his father’s office.

   •   He is the one who tweets from his father’s account.

   •   He is very close to the leaders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Quds Force, and the Basij.

   •   He is the one who orders the execution of protesters.

   •   He is the one who shut down the internet, against Pezeshkian’s wishes.

   •   He is the most influential figure in Iran.

   •   He is the man before whom Qassem Soleimani used to bow.

   •   He is the most dangerous man in Iran.
