Mojtaba Khamenei Orders Major Military Reshuffle in Iran

Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has initiated the largest military leadership overhaul since the Iran-Iraq war, filling six top-tier defense positions.

Ali Abdollahi has been appointed as the new Chief of the Armed Forces, a figure known for his hardline stance and previous threats against US naval assets.

The reshuffle comes as diplomatic talks regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz appear to have stalled, signaling a shift toward a wartime command structure.
