Assembly of Experts needs to act under Article 111 due to lack of successor

Iran’s constitutional mandate under Article 111 requires the Assembly of Experts to appoint a new Supreme Leader due to a vacancy. Until then, governance is maintained by an interim council to ensure continuity amid existing conflicts.

Officials are indicating a swift decision timeline, potentially within two days. While Mojtaba Khamenei’s candidacy is mentioned, no formal appointment has been announced, and factors like ongoing tensions influence the decision-making process.
