The attack on Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, took place not at midnight, as usual, but in the morning. According to BBC analysis, this was due to important intelligence data obtained by the US and Israel a few hours before the attack.
The source states that for several months, the US and Israel had been watching a moment when high-ranking Iranian officials could gather in one place. Intelligence indicates that Khamenei will be in a complex of buildings in central Tehran on Saturday morning. At the same time, it became known that other high-ranking military and intelligence leaders were also holding a meeting here.
According to the BBC, the US and Israel have been monitoring the leader's actions for several months. The specific methods used are kept secret, but Donald Trump hinted at this in a statement on social media:
"He couldn't escape our intelligence and modern surveillance technologies."
According to BBC analysis, information about Khamenei's location may have been transmitted through a local agent. However, a more probable version is that its exact location was determined through modern technologies and observation of the actions of other Iranian high-ranking officials.
