A new intelligence assessment indicates that Iran’s supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is currently unconscious and unable to manage the country’s affairs. The report, based on joint U.S.-Israeli intelligence, states that he is being treated in serious condition in the city of Qom.

According to the assessment, Khamenei, 56, has not been seen in public since assuming leadership following the death of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed on the first day of the war.

The report, published by The Times of London, suggests that his condition is far more severe than previously believed. A statement attributed to Israeli and American intelligence reads: “Mojtaba Khamenei is being treated in Qom in serious condition and is not capable of being involved in any decision-making of the regime.”

It remains unclear whether he has been unconscious since being wounded on the first day of the war or if he suffered additional injuries later. This marks the first time his location within Iran has been publicly disclosed since he assumed the role of supreme leader, although U.S. and Israeli intelligence are said to have been aware of his whereabouts for some time.

President Donald Trump has said that he is engaged in negotiations with Iranian representatives, but clarified that he is not referring to the supreme leader. Last month, it was revealed that Mojtaba Khamenei narrowly escaped death during strikes on his father’s compound in Tehran after stepping outside moments before the attack.

Mazaher Hosseini, a senior regime official, reportedly told top clerics and commanders in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps that Mojtaba Khamenei sustained a leg injury.

In a leaked recording, it was stated: “The will of God was that Mojtaba had to go out to the yard to do something and then return.” He was outside and standing above when the missiles struck the building, and his wife was killed on the spot.
