Iranian security officials fear Israel may attempt to assassinate Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, which is why he remains in a bunker - two days after the ceasefire took effect. This was reported in The New York Times in an article about Khamenei's "disappearance" from the public eye in Iran. The report is based on statements by Hamzeh Safavi, a political analyst and son of General Yahya Safavi - a senior commander in the Revolutionary Guards and close military adviser to the Supreme Leader. According to him, security officials in Iran are "taking extreme protective protocols, including limiting contact with the outside world."
