Iran president says post-Khamenei interim leadership council 'started work'

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Sunday that an interim leadership council established after the killing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has begun its work.

"The interim leadership council started its work... we will continue with all our strength along the path set by Imam Khomeinei," the founder of the Islamic Republic, Pezeshkian said in a recorded video statement broadcast on state TV.

He added that the Islamic Republic's military "will forcefully crush the enemy's bases."
