US EditionIRGC Allegedly Takes De Facto Control of Iran as Supreme Leader Reportedly Incapacitated
A diplomatic memo says he is in severe condition and unable to govern, while the IRGC may be exercising de facto control, sources said.
- A diplomatic memo citing U.S. and Israeli intelligence identifies Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei as unconscious and in "severe" condition in Qom, reportedly unable to participate in decision-making for the Islamic Republic.
- Mojtaba assumed power in early March after a joint U.S.-Israeli airstrike on February 28 killed his father, Ali Khamenei. Iranian officials acknowledge he sustained leg injuries during that same attack.
- Since his appointment, no authentic audio or video of the leader has surfaced, fueling speculation that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps holds de facto control. President Masoud Pezeshkian reportedly remains unable to meet him.
- Iranian authorities have delayed Ali's funeral for 40 days, citing expectations of high turnout. Intelligence indicates preparations are underway in Qom for a mausoleum designed to hold "more than one grave."
- Deepening instability within Iran's political system follows the leadership vacuum, as analysts observe that the reported incapacity calls into doubt the Supreme Leader's absolute authority in the country.
