US News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now! — Iran's Khamenei: Health Rumors Persist. Machine-transcribed; use the interactive transcript above to jump the player to any line.
On March 16th, Iran's foreign minister is denying rumors that the country's new supreme leader, Moich Taba Kamenay, suffered serious injuries from recent air strikes. He insists Kamenay is an excellent health and fully in command from his post. No photos of Kamenay have surfaced since the strikes hit. His first comments afterward came Thursday through a statement read on television via presenter. Officials say any public appearances are entirely up to him. Meanwhile, the United States is pushing a different story. War Secretary Pete Hegseth stated Friday that American intelligence points the Kamenay being wounded and possibly disfigured. Reports over the weekend added more twists, claiming Kamenay was rushed to Russia for secret medical care. Sources say he flew out on a Russian military plane after the February 28th attacks on Tehran, and had surgery at a private hospital tie, too, President Vladimir Putin's properties. The conflicting accounts leave everyone guessing about his true condition as tensions
simmer in the region.
