Kwa mujibu wa gazeti la The Times of Israel, Kiongozi Mkuu wa Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei ameandaa mpango wa dharura wa kutorokea Urusi iwapo vikosi vyake vya usalama vitashindwa kuzuia ghasia za nchi nzima.
Mpango huo unaripotiwa kujumuisha kutoroka Tehran na wanafamilia wa karibu na wasaidizi wakuu, akiwemo mwanawe na mrithi aliyekusudiwa, Mojtaba.
Hatua hiyo inaonyesha wasiwasi unaoongezeka ndani ya uongozi wa Iran huku maandamano yakiendelea kote nchini licha ya ukandamizaji mkali wa vikosi vya serikali.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has prepared an emergency plan to leave the country if mounting unrest overwhelms security forces and threatens his grip on power, according to intelligence findings reported by The Times.
The plan envisions Khamenei, 86, departing Tehran alongside a small group of close relatives and senior aides — fewer than two dozen people — including his son Mojtaba, who is widely viewed as a potential successor. The move would be triggered if Iran’s military or internal security units were seen as unwilling or unable to enforce orders, the report said.
An intelligence source cited by The Times said the leadership has already mapped out escape routes and logistical arrangements should conditions deteriorate rapidly. Former Israeli intelligence officer Beni Sabti told the newspaper that Russia would likely serve as Khamenei’s destination, saying Moscow remains the only country willing and able to provide him protection.
Sabti said Khamenei has long viewed Russian President Vladimir Putin favorably and considers Russia a cultural and political ally closer to Iran than Western states.
