Saudi Outlet Citing Israeli Source Claims Mojtaba Khamenei is Outside Iran
The Saudi channel cited an Israeli security source and said the report offered no evidence or location for Khamenei's whereabouts.
- On Sunday, a report by Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath cited an Israeli security source claiming that Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is not currently in Iran. The broadcast provided no evidence to support this assertion.
- Khamenei assumed the role of Supreme Leader on February 28, 2026, following the death of his father, Ali Khamenei, in joint US-Israeli strikes. He has made no public appearances since taking office, communicating only through written statements.
- Official messages attributed to the Supreme Leader are allegedly authored by Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps chief Ahmad Vahidi and other high-ranking members. This delegation suggests command authority is centralized within the IRGC.
- Tehran recently stepped back from an interim deal aimed at ending hostilities, indicating a pivot toward confrontation. Khamenei warned the United States would face "unforgettable lessons" alongside the "Axis" of "Resistance" if it continued attacking the Islamic Republic.
- Fighting around the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz has intensified, creating risks for global energy supplies and prolonged conflict. The United States reportedly opposes Israel participating in retaliatory strikes, despite fractures within Iranian leadership.
