Iran admitted that it is "very difficult" to contact its supreme leader Mukhta Khamenei after the US and Israeli attack

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian acknowledged on Wednesday that maintaining communication with the country's supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has become very difficult following a joint attack by the United States and Israel. The remarks highlight severe logistical and security disruptions within Iran's leadership structure.

The admission by the Iranian president has fueled ongoing uncertainty surrounding the supreme leader. This comes in the wake of silence and a complete lack of public appearances by Mojtaba Khamenei, who reportedly sustained injuries during the military strikes that also resulted in the death of the previous leader, Ali Khamenei.
