U.S. Officials Say Iran’s New Supreme Leader Gravely Wounded Amid Escalating Conflict

Protesters hold posters of Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his son, Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, during a protest marking al-Quds Day (Jerusalem Day), after Friday prayers at Fatih Mosque in Istanbul. U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has confirmed that Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei , was seriously wounded and likely disfigured during the opening phase of U.S. and Israeli military strikes. Speaking at a Pentagon briefing, Hegseth described Iran’s leadership as “desperate and hiding,” asserting that Khamenei has gone underground following injuries sustained in the attacks.  Reports from multiple outlets indicate that Khamenei has not appeared publicly since the conflict began, fueling speculation about the severity of his condition.

Tragedy in Gaza: Airstrike Claims Lives Amid Ongoing Conflict


In a devastating turn of events, Israeli forces bombarded homes in the northern Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of at least 15 people. The airstrike, which targeted a building in the town of Beit Lahiya, left several others wounded and many more missing. The Palestinian Civil Emergency Service reported that rescue workers struggled to reach the site immediately due to the ongoing conflict.

The attack has further strained the already overwhelmed hospitals in the area, which are barely operational and unable to cope with the influx of wounded individuals. Residents in Jabalia, Beit Lahiya, and Beit Hanoun reported that clusters of houses were bombed, with some set ablaze. Israeli drones also dropped bombs outside a school sheltering displaced families, suggesting an attempt to scare them into leaving.

The Israeli military, which began its offensive against Hamas in Gaza following the militant group's attack on southern Israeli communities on October 7, 2023, stated that its latest operations in northern Gaza aim to prevent militants from regrouping and launching further attacks. However, the ongoing conflict has resulted in significant casualties and displacement, with Gaza officials reporting over 44,400 deaths and widespread destruction across the enclave.

Efforts to reach a ceasefire continue, with Egyptian officials hosting talks between Hamas and the rival Fatah group led by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. The discussions aim to establish a committee to govern post-war Gaza, but no final agreement has been reached. Meanwhile, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza worsens, with the international community calling for urgent action to address the dire situation.
