Israel Says Iran’s Top Military Secretary Killed

Abu al-Qassem Babayian was killed days after his appointment as Iran's Supreme Leader military secretary amid Israel's ongoing strikes targeting Iranian command nodes.

  • On Sunday, Israeli forces announced they eliminated Abu al-Qassem Babayian, the newly appointed military secretary to Iran's Supreme Leader, during a security assessment at Israel's defense headquarters in Tel Aviv.
  • The IDF says its campaign aims to continue targeting Iran's leadership, including successors, after killing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Feb. 28, during Operation Roaring Lion/Epic Fury.
  • Inside the meeting, senior security officials including Eyal Zamir, Amir Baram, Shlomi Binder and representatives from Mossad and Shin Bet heard Israel Katz praise the operation and urge, 'Keep hunting them all.'
  • Iran's Assembly of Experts will soon gather in Qom to select a new supreme leader, with a member saying the body would meet 'within the next 24 hours'; Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, is seen as a leading successor who Israeli reports say may be injured but alive.
  • Gen. Effie Defrin told reporters that the Israeli Air Force targeted the Assembly of Experts premises on March 3 and warned participants in the successor selection meeting they could be targeted.
