Iranian-Americans celebrate reported death of Khamenei
A mother cries tears of joy with her child as thousands of Iranian-Americans celebrate the reported killing of the Islamic regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in American and Israeli strikes earlier in the day, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on February 28, 2026. Many demonstrators have waited decades for this moment, but it remains unclear who or what will follow Khamenei’s death. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto)
