Iran's supreme leader has tightened his grip on the nation's hierarchy by making key appointments. This move is seen as a consolidation of power within the Iranian leadership.
Among the new appointments, Mohsen Rezaei, a veteran of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), has been named to a crucial security role. Rezaei is described as a hardliner.
These leadership changes are interpreted as a signal of a firm stance against President Trump. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
