What happened to Mojtaba Khamenei during the Iran conflict? He survived an airstrike, officials say
Iranian authorities on Friday, May 1, confirmed that Mojtaba Khamenei was present in a building that was later destroyed in an airstrike during the ongoing Iran conflict, which began on February 28. Officials stated that he survived the attack and remains in active control of key state matters, while also dismissing widespread speculation about his health and absence from public appearances. Senior official details narrow escape during bombing Ayatollah Mohsen Qomi, a senior member of Iran’s Assembly of Experts and Deputy for International Affairs in the Supreme Leader’s office, said that Mojtaba Khamenei had been inside the targeted building shortly before it was struck. According to Qomi, Khamenei moved into the courtyard just minutes before the explosion, avoiding the fatal impact that reportedly killed others inside. Qomi described the survival as a matter of timing, emphasizing that the leader’s presence in the building had been confirmed but that his movement moments before the strike ultimately ensured his safety. The airstrike was part of ongoing hostilities that have escalated since late February. Officials assert leader remains in control of national affairs Despite rumors circulating internationally, Iranian officials maintained that Mojtaba Khamenei is in good health and continues to oversee both diplomatic and operational matters. Qomi stated that Khamenei is directly supervising negotiations and military-related decisions, including providing guidance to negotiating teams under varying conditions. The comments appear aimed at reinforcing internal stability and projecting continuity in leadership during a period of heightened geopolitical tension. Iranian officials emphasized that decision-making authority remains firmly centralized under Khamenei’s direction. Iran dismisses Western speculation as strategic pressure Qomi also addressed claims from Western sources regarding the leader’s health, characterizing them as deliberate attempts to provoke a response from Tehran. He suggested that questions about Khamenei’s public absence are part of a broader strategy to create uncertainty and apply psychological pressure. According to Qomi, such narratives are intended to push Iranian officials into reactive communication, which could be leveraged for strategic advantage by adversaries. Acknowledgment of injuries and focus on protection While firmly denying claims of serious health concerns, Qomi indicated that Mojtaba Khamenei may have sustained injuries during the incident. He stated that ensuring the leader’s safety has become a top priority for Iranian authorities, underscoring the importance of preserving leadership continuity amid the conflict. Officials reiterated that despite any injuries, Khamenei remains active and engaged in directing national policy, reinforcing the government’s position that leadership stability has not been compromised.

US–Israel–Iran War | Trump warns of possible US strikes on Iran within next week amid rising tensions
US President Donald Trump has warned that the United States could launch strong military strikes against Iran in the coming days, signaling a potential escalation in tensions between the two countries. Speaking during a radio interview aired Friday, Trump said Washington was prepared to act decisively and indicated that Iran could face significant attacks within the next week if the situation continues to deteriorate. Trump claimed that US operations had already inflicted severe damage on Iran’s military infrastructure. According to him, American actions have targeted key components of Iran’s missile and drone capabilities, including manufacturing facilities responsible for producing these weapons. He asserted that the extent of the damage was substantial and suggested it could take years for Iran to fully rebuild the affected systems. The president described the campaign as one of the most forceful responses seen in modern conflicts, emphasizing that the United States was intensifying pressure on Tehran. During the interview, Trump also addressed questions about Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, who has not appeared publicly in recent weeks. Trump suggested that the Iranian leader may have been harmed but was likely still alive. He added that Iranian leadership would ultimately need to respond to the ongoing situation, indicating that the United States was continuing its operations with considerable intensity. When asked about the possible conclusion of the conflict, Trump did not provide a clear timeline. Instead, he said he would know when the war was over based on his own judgment of the situation. He also expressed skepticism about the immediate collapse of the Iranian government, noting that such a development would be difficult without significant internal or military pressure. The US president further stated that American forces could escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz if necessary to ensure maritime security in the region. The strategic waterway remains a critical route for global energy supplies, and any disruption there could have widespread economic consequences. Trump also suggested that Russia might be providing limited support to Iran during the conflict. He indicated that Russian President Vladimir Putin could be assisting Tehran in some capacity, while acknowledging that Moscow might view US support for Ukraine as a comparable dynamic. Reports circulating in recent days have alleged that Russia may have shared targeting information with Iran related to attacks on US forces, although such claims remain unconfirmed. Additionally, Trump said that Washington is not currently prioritizing an operation to seize Iran’s uranium resources but did not rule out the possibility in the future. He suggested that the issue could become a consideration later depending on how the situation evolves.
