There are UNCONFIRMED, UNVERIFIED, UNCORROBORATED RUMORS flowing out of Iran that the Ayatollah Khamenei has been "killed by rioters and rebellious troops."
The RUMOR is going around Iran like a wildfire - but it is just RUMOR (for now.)
In a total internet blackout, disinformation spreads fast. Claims like this require independent confirmation from multiple credible sources.
Until then, treat with caution.
More if I get it.
