Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei has reportedly been moved to a fortified underground shelter amid fears of a possible U.S. strike.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei moved to a fortified underground shelter containing a series of tunnels in Tehran after senior security and military officials warned of an increased likelihood of an American strike, Iran International reported on Saturday afternoon.

According to the Iranian opposition outlet, Masoud Khamenei, the ayatollah’s third son, has taken over management of the supreme leader’s day-to-day responsibilities and is serving as the primary channel for communication with the regime government’s executive branches.

The Iranian assessment that a US attack has become more likely comes after US President Donald Trump said on Friday that American ships were en-route to waters near the country.
