The outlet Iran International reports that communication between Iran's leadership and Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has been severed since last evening. According to the report, Iran's missile attack on Israel yesterday—which followed an IDF strike in the Dahieh suburb of Beirut hours earlier—was launched without coordinating with Khamenei's office, based on pre-prepared military protocols. The assessment is that the Iranian response occurred faster than the messaging procedure with Khamenei allows.
