The wife of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has died from injuries sustained in the same joint US-Israeli airstrikes that killed him, Iranian media reported.

According to the Iranian news agency Tasnim, she had been critically wounded in the attack and succumbed to her injuries later.

Iranian state media said the 86-year-old Khamenei was killed early Sunday in coordinated American and Israeli airstrikes.

The Fars news agency reported that several members of the Supreme Leader’s family — including his son, daughter, son-in-law, daughter-in-law and grandson — were also killed in the strikes.

Khamenei led Iran for decades and was the country’s most powerful political and religious authority. During his tenure, Iran consolidated its clerical system and expanded its regional influence.

His leadership also saw heightened tensions with the United States and Israel, particularly over Iran’s nuclear programme, which remained a central point of global concern.
