The head of the Pentagon announced the serious injury of Iran's supreme leader Khamenei

Pentagon Chief Pete Hegseth announced at a briefing on April 8 that Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, had been seriously wounded.

According to him, Khamenei is allegedly "wounded and disfigured," and the Iranian industry has actually been destroyed. The US Secretary of War pointed out that the US military remains fully prepared for combat, despite the truce.

At the same time, on April 4, it was noted that reports about Khamenei's alleged trip to Russia for medical treatment did not correspond to reality. It was clarified that his injuries did not interfere with his work. Prior to that, on April 3, an Iranian diplomatic source assured that Khamenei was indeed wounded, but he was alive.

What does this change in the situation in the Middle East, how did Trump react, and what does Kiev have to do with it?

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Bagai said on April 1 that Mojtaba Khamenei's health is fine, and he may appear in public soon. Bagai added that the vertical of power of the Islamic republic is stable enough not to depend on specific people.
