Iranian regime likely to remain in power despite two weeks of attacks, US intelligence suggests
Iran’s regime will likely remain in power,
US intelligence has said, despite over
two weeks of US-Israeli attacks on the country.
While dozens of top Iranian military and intelligence leaders have been killed in the war, including the Supreme Leader
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, officials believe that the regime is still clinging onto control.
As the war enters a third week, at least 2,000 people have been killed with no end in sight despite widespread damage to Iran’s military installations and naval capability.
Though
Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu have vowed to pound Iran with missiles until regime change is achieved, a "multitude" of intelligence reports provide "consistent analysis that the regime is not in danger" of collapse, a source close to US intelligence told
The Washington Post. Rather, they said it "retains control of the Iranian public”.
