4 Iran's new supreme leader was lucky to survive strike that killed his father and is yet to be seen in public because he's still badly injured in hospital, regime official says

Mojtaba, described as a 'wounded veteran' of the war by Iranian state TV, suffered injuries to his legs and is currently in hospital.

'He was also there and he was injured in that bombardment,' Alireza Salarian, Iran's ambassador to Cyprus, told the Guardian.

'I have heard that he was injured in his legs and hand and arm... I think he is in the hospital because he is injured.'

Mojtaba's injuries are behind his mysterious absence from the public eye, the ambassador said, adding he also wants to avoid the glare of Israel and the US.

Ace of Spades today: "You might have seen the amazing video of Iran welcoming its new Supreme Leader.

The actual Supreme Leader was not present. (Tousi TV says there are legitimate reports that he was hit during the early rounds of bombing and lost his leg and is currently in a coma.)

So to welcome the totally-alive New Supreme Leader, they brought out -- and this is not a joke, this happened -- a cardboard cut-out of a human silhouette with a photograph of the totally-alive Mojtada Khamenei's head on top of it."
