Big Update: Tehran Dismisses Newspaper Claim on President’s Exit

Confusion continues over reports claiming that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has resigned. The controversy began after a newspaper report alleged that Pezeshkian had stepped down due to dissatisfaction with the growing influence of hardliners and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in government affairs. The report quickly gained attention and fueled speculation about political instability in Iran. However, the Iranian government strongly rejected the claim, calling the resignation reports false and misleading. Officials stated that the rumors are part of an attempt to weaken national unity and spread confusion. According to the government, foreign elements are trying to exploit the situation and create divisions within the country. Meanwhile, large public rallies continue in Iran’s capital, Tehran. Demonstrators have gathered in support of Iran’s leadership, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, as well as the IRGC and the armed forces. The rallies reflect ongoing public backing for the country’s leadership amid regional tensions and political rumors.
