Supreme National Security Council

The Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) is a key Iranian body responsible for shaping national security and foreign policy. It plays a central role in Iran's strategic decision-making. Recent news focuses on the assassination of its secretary, Ali Larijani, by Israel. Larijani was a highly influential figure in Iranian politics, and his death is considered a significant blow to Iran's leadership, deepening the existing crisis amid ongoing conflict with the US and Israel. Prior to his death, Larijani warned the US and Israel that killing Iranian leaders would only strengthen the country. His elimination, along with a top Basij commander, has escalated tensions and raised concerns about the stability of Iran's political system. The SNSC's future direction and its response to these events are of critical importance in the escalating conflict.
