The Story
Iran appointed former IRGC commander Mohsen Rezaei as secretary of its Supreme National Security Council. Rezaei, a hardliner and close ally of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, replaces Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr. The appointment comes amid tensions with the United States, uncertainty over the Strait of Hormuz reopening, and concerns over Khamenei's health. Rezaei has voiced skepticism of negotiations with the U.S. and is described as more outspoken than his predecessor.
