News24 | Where Is Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei? Even Top Officials Don’t Know
- Iran and Israel ceased missile exchanges on June 24, 2025, after a ceasefire took effect and celebrations occurred in Tehran's Enghlab Square.
- The ceasefire followed intense conflict starting with an Israeli airstrike on June 13 that heavily damaged Iran's military and nuclear leadership, prompting US strikes on nuclear sites and Iranian missile retaliation.
- Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, age 85, has been absent from public view and official comment for nearly a week, causing growing concern and speculation about his health among Iranians and officials.
- Iran has implemented strict security measures limiting Khamenei’s contact while senior military and intelligence leaders, partly sidelining him especially in national security, manage responses amid factional struggles.
- While the ceasefire eased immediate tensions, Khamenei’s silence and absence continue to fuel uncertainty about Iran’s leadership stability and the country’s future direction.
