The United States Department of State has announced rewards of up to $10 million for information on 10 senior Iranian leaders, including Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei. The move is part of the “Rewards for Justice” programme targeting figures linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which Washington designates as a terrorist organisation. Other officials on the list include Ali Larijani, Esmail Khatib, and Eskandar Momeni. The US says these leaders command IRGC networks involved in global militant operations. Individuals providing credible information may also receive relocation assistance, reflecting escalating tensions between the US and Iran amid the ongoing regional conflict. (PC: X)
