How the call settles

YES if Iran's Islamic Republic governing regime in power on 2026-01-16 loses national governing power through collapse, overthrow, or formal replacement on or before 2026-07-16; NO if it remains the national government through that date.

Our reasoning

NO on the research record because Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in a US-Israeli strike on February 28, 2026, but Iran's Assembly of Experts selected his son Mojtaba Khamenei as the new Supreme Leader on March 8-9, 2026, preserving the Islamic Republic's governing structure through and beyond the July 16, 2026 deadline — a succession within the regime, not its fall.. Applied stored rule: YES if Iran's Islamic Republic governing regime in power on 2026-01-16 loses national governing power through collapse, overthrow, or formal replacement on or before 2026-07-16; NO if it remains the national government through that date.

Outcome evidence

Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in a US-Israeli strike on February 28, 2026, but Iran's Assembly of Experts selected his son Mojtaba Khamenei as the new Supreme Leader on March 8-9, 2026, preserving the Islamic Republic's governing structure through and beyond the July 16, 2026 deadline — a succession within the regime, not its fall.
