The Trump and Netanyahu regimes killed the Ayatollah, his daughter, his son-in-law, and his 3-year-old grandchild at their house.

What we found

Supports. Multiple sources report that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in the joint US-Israeli strikes that began Feb. 28, 2026, with Israel carrying out the strike that killed him.[2][3][4][5]

Supports. An AP photo caption describes the residence compound where Ali Khamenei was killed during the strike, which partly supports the 'at their house' framing for the Ayatollah.[1]

Context. No source mentions the death of Khamenei's daughter, son-in-law, or 3-year-old grandchild, so the claim's family-death elements are not addressed by the provided sources.[1][2][3][4][6]
