Iran Goes to Polls to Elect New President After Raisi Death | Vantage on Firstpost
Iranians cast their ballots in a presidential election marked by a lone reformist's bid to break through against a divided conservative field. The election coincides with escalating regional tension due to war between Israel and Iranian allies Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, as well as increased Western pressure on Iran over its fast-advancing nuclear program. While the election is unlikely to bring a major shift in the Islamic Republic's policies, its outcome could influence the succession to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's 85-year-old supreme leader, in power since 1989. Our next report tells you.
