Iran’s new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has issued his first public message since taking power following the death of his father Ali Khamenei. The statement was read by a state television anchor while an image of Khamenei was displayed, raising questions about why he did not appear in person. The message comes amid reports circulating in international media claiming that Mojtaba Khamenei may have been severely injured during the recent US-Israeli strikes and could even be in a coma. Iranian officials have not confirmed these claims.
