How the call settles

Ali Khamenei is still Iran's Supreme Leader (has not died, resigned, or been deposed)

Our reasoning

NO on the research record because Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed on February 28, 2026 in a joint U.S.-Israeli strike on his Tehran compound, confirmed by Iranian state media; Iran declared 40 days of mourning and Mojtaba Khamenei succeeded him as Supreme Leader. Tim's claim was made February 11, 2026, 17 days before.. Applied stored rule: Ali Khamenei is still Iran's Supreme Leader (has not died, resigned, or been deposed).

Outcome evidence

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed on February 28, 2026 in a joint U.S.-Israeli strike on his Tehran compound, confirmed by Iranian state media; Iran declared 40 days of mourning and Mojtaba Khamenei succeeded him as Supreme Leader. Tim's claim was made February 11, 2026, 17 days before.
