Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is reportedly unconscious.\nQuestions have arisen regarding who is holding the reins of power in\nIran.<\/p>\n
Mojtaba\u2019s condition, as reported by The Times of India on Tuesday\n(7\/4\/2026), was revealed in a diplomatic memo seen by The Times, based\non assessments from US and Israeli intelligence. Mojtaba is said to be\nunconscious and undergoing emergency medical treatment in the city of\nQom, Iran.<\/p>\n
The 56-year-old Supreme Leader of Iran is, according to the\ndiplomatic memo, in a \u201ccritical\u201d condition and \u201cunable to engage in any\ndecision-making by the Tehran regime\u201d.<\/p>\n
The diplomatic memo, which states that Mojtaba is receiving medical\ntreatment in Qom, marks the first time the location of Iran\u2019s Supreme\nLeader has been revealed to the public.<\/p>\n
The report adds that intelligence agencies have known of Mojtaba\u2019s\nwhereabouts for some time but have never disclosed it publicly.<\/p>\n
Mojtaba Was Once Injured When His Father Was Killed in an Israeli\nAirstrike<\/p>\n
Iran has acknowledged that Mojtaba was injured in a US-Israeli\nairstrike that killed his father, the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, along\nwith several close family members of Khamenei on 28 February.<\/p>\n
However, Iranian officials have insisted that Mojtaba remains\n\u201cleading\u201d Iran, even though he has not appeared in public since the war\nbegan. There have been no verified videos or audio recordings of him\nreleased, only written statements read out on Iranian state television,\nand clips generated by AI released in the past few days.<\/p>\n
The lack of direct communication has sparked speculation that Iran\u2019s\nSupreme Leader may be unable to perform his duties, with opposition\ngroups claiming that Mojtaba is in a coma in hospital.<\/p>\n
Several other unverified reports mention that he has suffered serious\ninjuries, including broken bones and facial wounds. His condition has\nraised uncertainty over the chain of command in Iran, where the Supreme\nLeader holds the highest political and religious authority.<\/p>\n
This situation has prompted questions about whether the Islamic\nRevolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is effectively in control, potentially\nreducing Mojtaba to a symbolic figure.<\/p>\n
US President Donald Trump appears to reinforce this perception,\nstating that he is negotiating with other Iranian officials and not\ndirectly with the country\u2019s Supreme Leader.<\/p>\n
This uncertainty at the top of Iran\u2019s leadership comes as tensions\ncontinue to rise. Trump has repeatedly threatened to attack Iranian\ninfrastructure, including power plants and bridges, setting shifting\ndeadlines related to demands over the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n
Iran itself has rejected a US-proposed ceasefire and asserted that it\nwill not surrender under pressure.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/questions-over-irans-leadership-as-mojtaba-lies-unconscious-1775613264", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
