Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is reportedly still recovering from serious injuries sustained in an airstrike that killed his father, former leader Ali Khamenei.
According to several sources close to him, Mojtaba Khamenei was seriously wounded in the face and legs during the attack on the Supreme Leader's compound in Tehran. The facial injuries are said to be particularly severe, suggesting possible disfigurement.
Despite his concerning health condition, the 56-year-old remains fully lucid and continues to perform his duties. According to these sources, he participates in strategic decisions via audio conferences with top Iranian officials, particularly regarding the conduct of the war and ongoing negotiations with the United States.
His exact condition remains shrouded in mystery. No images or public statements have been released since the attack and his designation as successor on March 8, fueling questions about his ability to govern during this critical period for the country.
These revelations come as Tehran engages in high-risk peace talks with Washington in Islamabad, amid extreme regional tensions.
Reuters notes that it has not been able to independently verify this information, highlighting the sensitive and uncertain nature of the data concerning the Iranian leader's health.
