Iran’s new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, is “safe and sound” despite reports that he was injured during the ongoing war with Israel and the United States, the son of the Iranian president said on Wednesday.

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

Iranian state television had earlier described Khamenei as a “wounded veteran of the Ramadan war,” but did not specify the nature of any injury.

Mojtaba Khamenei is the son and successor of the Islamic Republic’s longtime leader, Ali Khamenei, who was killed in U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran on February 28—an attack that triggered the current conflict across the Middle East.

The 56-year-old cleric, known for maintaining a low public profile and rarely appearing at official events, has not addressed the nation or issued a written statement since he was declared supreme leader on Sunday.

Meanwhile, a report by The New York Times on Wednesday, citing three unnamed Iranian officials, said Khamenei had “suffered injuries, including to his legs,” but remained alert and was sheltering in a highly secure location with limited communication.
