China-Iran oil trade deepens: Tehran dependent, Beijing profits from discounted crude
Al Jazeera AR·CN · IR·about 11 hours ago
An IranWire journalist has published YouTube stories alleging that intelligence agents now control Iran's oil industry following the killing of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei in a US-Israeli strike. The claim is unverified and likely based on anonymous sources, but if true, it signals a significant shift in Iran's internal power dynamics and economic governance. This development could affect global oil markets and regional stability, though the immediate market impact is uncertain.
