Mojtaba Khamenei lauds Iraq’s support in new message, remains out of public eye

Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed in an airstrike at the start of the war on February 28, has yet to make a public appearance since assuming the role. So far, he has communicated only through a limited number of written statements. His absence from public view has fuelled speculation about his health and whereabouts. However, state television and some Iranian officials have suggested that he is recovering from injuries sustained in an airstrike.
