Kamal Kharrazi, a senior advisor to Iran's supreme leader, has been critically injured following a bombardment of Tehran, according to international media reports.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the information was released by the Al Hadath news outlet. The report states that Kharrazi is currently in critical condition, and his wife was killed during the attack. Iranian officials have not yet officially commented on the status of the advisor or the specific details of the incident.
This development follows earlier unconfirmed reports regarding the health of Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei. While some foreign media outlets suggested he had also been wounded and remained in serious condition, Iranian authorities have moved to deny those claims. The situation in Tehran remains fluid amid ongoing regional tensions and military activity.
Kamal Kharrazi is a prominent figure in Iranian diplomacy, having previously served as the country's Foreign Minister from 1997 to 2005. As the head of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations, he plays a pivotal role in shaping the Islamic Republic's foreign policy and advising the supreme leadership on international affairs. The reported strike on such a high-ranking official marks a significant escalation in the current conflict landscape in the Middle East.
