Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has not been harmed despite earlier reports suggesting he was killed in a joint U.S.-Israeli strike targeting Iran’s leadership and military facilities, according to a close associate.

“I am in touch with him. All is good,” the adviser told Anadolu Agency, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Initial reports had indicated that Ahmadinejad may have been killed during an Israeli-American airstrike.

According to the aide, the strike hit a structure connected to Ahmadinejad’s security team the day before.

The source said three of Ahmadinejad’s bodyguards—members of the IRGC (Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps)—were killed in the attack.

The adviser added that Ahmadinejad’s home, located roughly 100 meters from the building that was struck, was not hit and suffered no damage.

Ahmadinejad held the presidency of Iran from 2005 until 2013.
