Chants hostile to Iran's new supreme leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei were heard in Iranian capital Tehran shortly after his appointment, according to a video posted on social media Sunday.In the 17-second clip, filmed at night from a building window, women's voices can be heard shouting "Death to Mojtaba" in Persian, while religious chants can be heard in the distance.
AFP was unable to determine exactly where the footage was filmed or whether similar chants were heard elsewhere in the city.
The Assembly of Experts, the religious body tasked with electing the supreme leader, announced Sunday evening that Mojtaba Khamenei had been designated the successor to his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed on February 28 in Israeli and American strikes on Tehran.
