US Sets $10M Reward for Iranian Officials

The United States has announced a reward of up to ten million dollars for anyone who can provide reliable information about senior members of Iran’s military and intelligence services, including the country’s new Supreme Leader. The offer focuses on ten individuals linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, a force that was established after Iran’s 1979 revolution and remains fiercely loyal to the Supreme Leader. These officials are believed to be involved in planning and executing attacks worldwide, according to U. S. authorities. The reward list also names the new Supreme Leader’s security chief, the intelligence minister, the interior minister, and two aides in his office.One of the listed figures recently appeared on video with Iran’s president and foreign minister at a rally, contradicting U. S. claims that the leadership is hiding underground. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard has been labeled a foreign terrorist organization by Washington, which cites the group’s role in attacks that have killed American citizens. Iran denies any support for terrorism and dismisses the U. S. accusations as political pressure designed to justify sanctions. The Iranian delegation at the United Nations did not respond promptly to a request for comment, while the Guard itself could not be reached on the day of its weekly rest. The U. S. government’s announcement reflects ongoing tensions between Tehran and Washington, especially after recent joint strikes that killed Iran’s former Supreme Leader.
