Iran's IRGC Releases Photos of Supreme Leader Amid Health Rumors

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has released new photographs of Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, aiming to quell rumors about his health. The IRGC shared the images via their official X account, stating that the leader is "very well, thank God."

The new photos of the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei have been released through the official website of the leadership.

The IRGC's statement directly addressed "slanderers" and their "blind hatred," asserting that Khamenei is in good health despite the speculation. Mojtaba Khamenei was designated as the successor to his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in a US and Israeli airstrike in February.

Mojtaba Khamenei has not appeared in public since his father's death and did not attend the recent funeral. He sent a message expressing gratitude for the large turnout at the funeral and vowed revenge for his father's death. He was reportedly injured during the same airstrike that killed his father.

Despite the blind hatred of the slanderers, the mourning leader is, thank God, in very good health.

Earlier in the month, US President Donald Trump indicated that Mojtaba Khamenei was "clearly involved" in negotiations between the United States and Iran.
