March 11 (The Times of Israel) - Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei is “safe and sound” despite reports of an injury on the opening day of US-Israeli strikes on the country, says the son of Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.

“I heard news that Mr Mojtaba Khamenei had been injured. I have asked some friends who had connections. They told me that, thank God, he is safe and sound,” says Yousef Pezeshkian, who is also a government adviser, in a post on his Telegram channel.

State television have called Khamenei a “wounded veteran of the Ramadan war,” referring to the current war, but never specified his injury. The New York Times reported earlier today that Khamenei sustained injuries to his legs on the war’s first day, February 28, when his father, supreme leader Ali Khamenei, was killed in an airstrike.

A good and a selfless leader will always visit and motivate the troops engaged in fighting. Yet his movements and whereabouts will be top secret and will not be divulged. Taking into consideration, the capabilities and the intent of the enemy, it would be wise to take extra precautions.

Even this bloodthirsty, tyrannical barbarian will see his father again in a few hours or days.

Safe for how long? If he follows the same policy as his predecessor, which he is most likely to, then his days are numbered
