The council will reportedly consist of the following members:

– The heads of the three branches of government; the President (Masoud Pezeshkian), the Chief Justice (Mohsen Ejei), and the Parliament Speaker (Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf).

– Two personally appointed representatives of the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Khamenei, to be determined.

– The Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Major General Abolrahim Mousavi.

– The Commander-in-Chief of the IRGC, Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour.

– The Commander-in-Chief of Iran's Army, Major General Amir Hatami.

– The Minister of Intelligence, Ismael Khateeb.

– The Commander of the Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Joint Headquarters, currently unknown, possibly Brigadier General Ali Aliabadi.

This firmly places Iran's affairs during war time under the command of the military and the Supreme Leader.

Pezeshkian will be the chairman of the council though, so he will likely try to sabotage it as much as possible.
