Israel army says will 'track down, find, neutralise' Iran's Mojtaba Khamenei

The Israeli military said Tuesday that it would hunt down Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei.

"We don't know about Mojtaba Khamenei, we don't hear him, we don't see him, but I can tell you one thing: we will track him down, find him, and neutralise him," military spokesman Brigadier General Effie Defrin told reporters.
