The son of the former Iran Supreme Leader has been appointed Iran's new supreme leader, according to state media.
Ajallallah Ali Khamenei was killed in the first US-Israel attacks on Iran on Saturday.
His son, Mojataba Khamenei, is a 56-year-old cleric who has never held a government post.
Remember, Iran's supreme leader has the final word on all state affairs.
88 members of the assembly have decided who takes the role after Khamene's murder.
Under Iran's system, the supreme leader must be a senior leader with political and religious authority.
A leadership council of three was formed to govern the country on a temporary basis soon after the death of the Supreme Leader.
