Israeli officials told The Associated Press that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed. There was no immediate comment from the U.S. or Iran on his status.

In a nationally televised address, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said said there were “growing signs” that Khamenei had been killed when Israel struck his compound early Saturday.
