Khamenei's Escape Plan: Fleeing to Moscow
Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description
Irans Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has a secret escape plan ready, according to a UK intelligence report. The plan, which includes mapped exit routes, secured transport, and stashed cash, could see him flee Tehran with up to twenty close aides and family members, likely to Moscow. The plan is triggered if security forces defect or refuse to crack down on protesters, who are angered by inflation and crumbling living standards. Khamenei, who has stayed out of sight during the unrest, is seen as paranoid yet practical, with measures to block defections. Some top officials also have family abroad, hinting at their own backup plans as U.S. pressure on Iran increases.
