Official Denial from Tehran
Mohsen Rezaei, a member of Iran’s Expediency Discernment Council, has formally rejected speculation surrounding the health of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. In his first public statement on the matter, Rezaei emphasized that the leader remains in good health and continues to oversee the nation's affairs as usual.
Rezaei characterized the recent wave of rumors as a calculated move by hostile intelligence agencies. He warned that these reports are designed to bait officials into responding or appearing on camera, which could inadvertently compromise the leader's physical security during the ongoing iran war.

The reassurances follow widespread international media coverage highlighting Khamenei’s absence from public view since March 9. His reliance on written statements issued through official channels rather than live appearances had prompted questions about his status as Iran navigates a period of significant regional instability.
