America and Israel will stop only when Iran appoints Ayatollah "NobodyRemain' as their leader🤣

Dem go make sure say dem put fear inside them till the extent that nobody will be willing to take that role...or at least not officially.

I had a bad feeling that would happen... But need a leader , so we can move forward with dialogue, the U.S is behaving irrationally lately ... Everyone is still following the talks in Switzerland, and you made us believe things were going fine only for you to strike. Anyone can have a nuclear warheads, they don't even need to enrich it in there country .. please stop this madness. Like some said no missile is strong enough to kill an ideology. You can kill them , they kill everyone, but what they have put in there people's head would be difficult to erase. Put a hands of friendship, allow for dialogue and don't end our existence on an ego trip.

Bros leave matter. When Iranian government's motto na "Death to Israel and America" what was your response?

When Iran was sponsoring Islamic terrorists like Hezbollah, hamas, Islamic Jihad, it against Iarael, what was your response?

Response or not this madness needs to stop.

FALSE

The claim that Ayatollah Alireza Arafi (often referred to as Ayatollah Arafi), newly appointed as Iran's interim Supreme Leader (or more precisely, a key member of the interim leadership council), has been killed in an airstrike just hours after his appointment is not confirmed and appears to be largely false or unverified rumor based on current reporting as of March 2, 2026.

Background on Recent Events

Iran's long-time Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was killed on February 28, 2026, in joint U.S.-Israeli airstrikes on Tehran (confirmed by Iranian state media, U.S. officials including President Trump, Israeli sources, and major outlets like Reuters, NBC, Al Jazeera, Wikipedia updates, and others).
Following Khamenei's death, Iran's constitution triggered a transitional mechanism: A three-person interim Leadership Council was formed to handle duties until the Assembly of Experts selects a permanent successor.
On March 1, 2026 (Sunday), Ayatollah Alireza Arafi (a senior cleric, member of the Guardian Council and Assembly of Experts) was appointed as the jurist/clerical member of this council, alongside President Masoud Pezeshkian and Chief Justice Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejei. Reliable sources (e.g., Reuters via ISNA, Al Jazeera, CNN, NDTV, CNBC) describe him as actively part of this interim body.
Status of the Claim About Arafi's Death

The rumor exploded on social media (especially X/Twitter) and some less-vetted outlets/YouTube videos today (March 2), with identical phrasing: "Newly appointed Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Arafi, has reportedly been killed in an airstrike, just hours after being given the role." Many posts are near-identical copies, often with images or memes, suggesting viral misinformation or coordinated sharing.
Some Indian/Asian media (e.g., Deccan Chronicle, Mathrubhumi) and social posts reference "unverified reports" or "claims from social media and some Israeli news reports," but emphasize no official confirmation from Iran.
Credible mainstream sources (e.g., NBC live updates, Al Jazeera, Reuters, CNN, Wikipedia on the ongoing transition) continue to list Arafi as part of the active interim council, with no mention of his death. Ongoing strikes are reported, but nothing confirms targeting Arafi specifically.
Iranian state media has not acknowledged any such incident, which would be major news if true (similar to how they confirmed Khamenei's death).
This looks like fast-moving wartime misinformation—possibly amplified by the chaos of ongoing U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, retaliatory actions, and the power vacuum after Khamenei. Similar rumors have swirled in past conflicts.

The claim is not true based on available evidence from reliable sources; it's an unconfirmed rumor circulating online. If major developments occur (e.g., official Iranian announcement), the situation could change rapidly.
