Iran’s state-run media reported Sunday the new leader was chosen to succeed his father, the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
In the report, the younger Khamenei was introduced as an injured warrior, suggesting he was hurt in the US-Israeli attack on February 28 that reportedly killed his parents and his wife.
The French news channel France 24 reports he has likely gone into hiding as US and Israeli airstrikes continue to pound Iran.
