This market will resolve to "Yes" if the Supreme Leader of Iran, Mojtaba Khamenei, ceases to be the de facto leader of Iran at any point between market creation and the listed date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Mojtaba Khamenei will be considered to no longer be the de facto leader of Iran if he is removed from power, is detained, or otherwise loses his position or is prevented from acting as the de facto leader of Iran within this market's timeframe. An official announcement of Mojtaba Khamenei’s resignation or removal will qualify for a "Yes" resolution regardless of when the announced departure goes into effect. The primary resolution source for this market will be a consensus of credible reporting.Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader since 1989, was killed on February 27, 2026, in a U.S.-Israeli airstrike amid escalating conflict, prompting the Assembly of Experts to convene and select his son, Mojtaba Khamenei, as successor by March 8 following an interim council period. This rapid transition, influenced by Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps pressure, reflects wartime exigencies but faces scrutiny over Mojtaba's reported injuries and absence from public view, as noted in recent U.S. intelligence assessments and media reports through late March. Trader consensus weighs regime continuity against potential instability from succession disputes or health uncertainties, with no major diplomatic breakthroughs or scheduled Assembly sessions imminent.
