Israeli opposition leader Yair Golan has stated that the assassination of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei at the beginning of the US-Israeli war on Iran was a "mistake" for Israel. Golan argued that the elimination of Khamenei, who was 86 at the time, did not serve Israel's interests, despite the fact that he "deserved to die".
He also criticized the appointment of Khamenei's son, Mojtaba Khamenei, as it resulted in Iran having "more extreme and violent individuals." Golan further criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for pursuing an unrealistic goal of toppling Iran's government, which he said had not been achieved.
