"Hundreds of Iranians took to the streets on Tuesday to show support for the new Supreme Leader, Mujtaba Khamenei, and condemn US‑Israeli strikes on their country. Footage shows protesters burning US and Israeli flags while chanting 'God is great.' The exact date and location of the recordings could not be independently verified. According to the Iranian Tasnim News Agency, large gatherings took place in several Iranian cities, including Revolution Square (Inqilab) in Tehran, Sabzeh Meydan in Zanjan, and Qazvin. Tensions flared in the Middle East after the United States and Israel launched a joint military operation against Iran on February 28, amid talks over Iran's nuclear and missile programs. Tehran announced retaliatory strikes on Israel and US assets in the region, with explosions reported in a number of Gulf countries. Iran also confirmed that its Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed on the first day of the conflict. His son, Mojtaba Khamenei, has been selected as his successor. The escalating conflict has sent global energy prices soaring and disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic waterway that carries around 20 percent of global oil shipments."
