US EditionIran's New Supreme Leader Reportedly Flown to Moscow for Surgery
Reports claim Mojtaba Khamenei was secretly flown to Moscow for leg surgery after injury in Feb. 28 airstrikes, amid Iranian and Russian denials and ongoing leadership uncertainty.
- On Feb. 28, Mojtaba Khamenei was reported wounded in Tehran strikes and Al-Jarida says he was secretly flown to Moscow on a Russian military aircraft for surgery.
- Because continued Israeli and U.S. attacks impeded care inside Iran, Russian President Vladimir Putin offered to fly Mojtaba Khamenei to Moscow for treatment, which Iranian officials approved.
- Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi denied injury reports and said Iranian leadership and state institutions remain stable, though independent confirmation of the evacuation and surgery claims is lacking.
- Khamenei has not appeared publicly and did not deliver his first vengeance message on camera, but a state-TV statement vowed revenge against the US and Israel recently.
- U.S. officials were briefed that Iran might be leaderless, with President Donald Trump privately saying Mojtaba Khamenei might be dead and intelligence showing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei opposed his son's succession.
