Iran’s new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, sustained injuries in the opening hours of the joint U.S.–Israeli military operations against Iran, according to Israeli assessments.
A senior Israeli security official told Epoch Magazine in Israel that Israel had received indications that Khamenei—the son of late supreme leader Ali Khamenei—sustained injuries to his leg during strikes targeting his father’s bunker. The younger Khamenei was injured the same day his father was killed.
