According to an intelligence report seen by The Times, Iranian Supreme-Leader Ali Khamenei plans to flee Tehran with a close circle of up to twenty aides and family, if military and security forces called on to quell the ongoing civil unrest begin deserting, defecting, or failing to follow orders, particularly members of Khamenei’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The plan is reportedly based on the escape in 2024 of his close ally, Syrian Dictator Bashar al-Assad, who fled Damascus in December as rebel forces approached the capital city from all direction, boarding a plane to join his family in Moscow. Khamenei, in planning his escape, would “gather assets, properties abroad and cash to facilitate their safe passage,” with them fleeing to Moscow.
