DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Oil prices surged and stock markets slid Monday after hard-line Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei was chosen to succeed his late father as Iran’s supreme leader. His appointment, and new strikes on regional oil infrastructure, signaled that Iran was digging in 10 days into the war launched by the United States and Israel.
The war has choked off major supplies of oil and gas to world markets, led foreigners to flee from business hubs and prompted millions to seek shelter as bombs hit sites including military bases, government buildings, oil and water installations, hotels and at least one school.
Khamenei, a secretive 56-year-old cleric, is only the third supreme leader in the history of the Islamic Republic. He has close ties to the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, which has been firing missiles and drones at Israel and Gulf Arab states since his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who had ruled since 1989, was killed during the war’s opening salvo.
The appointment suggests Tehran is not close to giving up on what it considers a fight for the Islamic theocracy’s survival.

AP AUDIO: Iran names Khamenei’s son to succeed him, signaling no letup in war as oil prices surge
AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Iran has named its new supreme leader, as the war rages on.
| Two teenagers were charged on Monday with offenses including terrorism and using a weapon of mass destruction after they allegedly threw improvised explosive devices during an anti-Islam demonstration on Saturday outside the residence of New York mayor Zohran Mamdani. |
| According to a 10-page criminal complaint filed in federal court in the US southern district of New York, 18-year-old Emir Balat threw the devices at protesters after they were handed to him by Ibrahim Kayumi, 19. It said both declared allegiance to the Islamic State terror group. |
| The incident took place on Saturday during an anti-Islam protest by rightwing agitators outside Gracie Mansion on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Mamdani, the city’s first Muslim mayor, and his family were not at home. |
| Neither device exploded, and both were made safe by the NYPD bomb squad. |
| The defendants, from Pennsylvania, were expected to be arraigned on Monday afternoon. |
| The document, signed by federal magistrate judge Gary Stein, lists five charges against each: attempted provision of material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization; use of a weapon of mass destruction; transportation of explosive materials; interstate transportation and receipt of explosives; and unlawful possession of destructive devices. |

| It said Balat was arrested in possession of a Turkish government ID and a Pennsylvania driver’s license in his name. It gave no details of Kayumi’s nationality, but said he was reported missing by his mother in Pennsylvania earlier on Saturday. |
| Jessica Tisch, the New York police commissioner, told reporters at an earlier press conference in Manhattan that the devices contained triacetone triperoxide (TATP), a homemade and highly volatile chemical explosive known as “mother of Satan”. |
| “These were not hoax devices, nor smoke bombs,” Tisch said. “They were improvised explosive devices that could have caused serious injury or death.” |
| Tisch said she could “confirm that this is being investigated as an act of Isis-inspired terrorism”. And at a later, afternoon press conference, Tisch said investigators were “aware” of recent international travel by the pair, although she declined to elaborate. |
| She said neither had a history of arrests nor previous encounters with law enforcement. On Saturday, she added, they were arrested within an hour of arriving in New York from Pennsylvania. |
| According to an FBI agent with the New York joint terrorism taskforce whose name appears on the criminal complaint, Balut and Kayumi admitted their involvement in Saturday’s attempted bombing. |
| “At approximately 12.15pm, an individual later identified as Emir Balat ignited and threw an item toward the area where the protesters were gathered,” that agent, Jennifer Gioia, wrote. |
| “Immediately after throwing device 1, Balat ran to another location down the block and received a second item from an individual later identified as Ibrahim Kayumi. After apparently igniting device 2, Balat dropped [it] near where several NYPD officers were standing, ran away from the officers, and jumped over a barricade. He was tackled and arrested.” |
| After their arrests, Gioia said, Balat pledged allegiance to IS, and Kayumi said his actions were “partly inspired” by the group. Balat, the document states, wanted his bombing to be “even bigger” than the terrorist attack on the 2013 Boston marathon that killed three and injured hundreds. |
| Mamdani said the men had “traveled from Pennsylvania and attempted to bring violence to New York City”. The mayor praised two police officers whose “swift and decisive actions” he said led to the suspects’ prompt arrest as well as the devices being removed safely. |
| “New York City will never tolerate violence, whether from protests or counter-protests,” he said, referring to the Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City demonstration of about 20 people organized by far-right influencer Jake Lang, and dozens more who turned up to oppose it. |

| “Many of the counter-protesters met this display of bigotry peacefully with a vision of a city that is welcoming to all, but a few did not. |
| “Anti-Muslim bigotry is nothing new to me, nor is it anything new for the one million or so Muslim New Yorkers who know this city as our home. While I found this protest appalling, I will not waver in my belief that it should be allowed to happen.” |
| Six people were arrested at the protest, which the New York Times reported featured several violent skirmishes, the throwing of raw eggs, and at least one of Lang’s supporters pepper-spraying a counter-protester. |

| Tisch said the NYPD was already on a heightened state of alert for terrorist acts because of the US and Israeli military strikes in Iran that began on 28 February. But Tisch said “we do not have any information that connects this investigation to what’s going on overseas in Iran”. |
| Tisch added that the investigation was in its preliminary stages. And she said there was nothing so far that suggested the two arrested men had made any threats on social media or announced their intention to travel from Pennsylvania to New York. |
| She said a third suspected device “consistent with the first two explosive devices” was found in a 2010 Honda tied to the suspects and parked nearby. The device was removed by a robot and tested negative for explosives. She said there was no information about a possible third suspect linked to the arrested men. |

Trump says he wants to be involved in picking Iran's next leader as war ripples across the region
Thousands poured into a central square in the capital, Tehran, and other locations in a show of allegiance to the new supreme leader, waving flags and shouting phrases like “Death to America” and “Death to Israel.”
“America and Israel: You’ve failed, and you will drown in the swamp you are stuck in,” said Abbas Ali Saeedipoor, one of the demonstrators.
Iranian authorities have long encouraged public shows of support for the Islamic Republic while violently cracking down on dissent. Earlier this year, thousands of people were killed and tens of thousands detained during mass protests against the elder Khamenei.
Trump dismisses oil price concerns
Brent crude oil, the international standard, surged to nearly $120 a barrel Monday, about 65% higher than when the war started, before retreating below $100. The Dow Jones Industrial Average sank more than 600 points, or over 1.3%, shortly after opening — a drop of more than 6.5% from its all-time high close last month, though it later pared its losses.
