U.S. Intelligence Says Iran’s Supreme Leader Is Hidden in Undisclosed Location
U.S. officials say the Iranian leader's use of couriers to receive messages has created communication delays affecting ongoing peace negotiations.
- Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei is hidden in an undisclosed location with little access to the outside world, U.S. officials disclosed to CBS on Sunday, employing extreme measures to avoid Israeli-US strikes.
- Mojtaba Khamenei suffered severe facial and leg injuries during the Feb airstrike of Operation Epic Fury that also killed his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and has not appeared publicly since.
- According to U.S. intelligence, Khamenei is reachable only through a "labyrinth" of couriers, with every piece of information he receives dated and causing significant latency in responses.
- Difficulties reaching Khamenei have slowed deal negotiations with President Trump, with officials describing the communication process as "almost like watching a sitcom" due to extreme latency.
- Despite physical isolation, sources note that Khamenei remains "mentally sharp" and continues to participate in senior meetings via audio conferencing, managing state affairs from his fortified bunker location.
