Iran’s new Supreme Leader has ordered his nation to weaponise the Strait of Hormuz in his first statement, amid claims he is ‘in a coma’ and has lost a leg after being seriously injured in air strikes.
Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, made the statement on state TV this afternoon, which was read out by a news anchor.
He added in the written statement that Iran would not refrain from avenging the ‘blood of its martyrs.’
He is said to be in intensive care at the Sina University Hospital in the city’s historic quarter surrounded by security officials, according to a source in Tehran. A section of the hospital has been sealed off to guard Iran’s Supreme Leader.
It is unclear whether Mojtaba was injured in the same air strikes which killed his 86-year-old father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, on February 28.
Iranian state media announced today that Mojtaba’s first message since his appointment will be released imminently, without specifying whether it would be a recorded message or a written statement.
