Amid the ongoing war involving Iran, the United States, and Israel, former US President Donald Trump has made a major diplomatic move by announcing a large bounty on several senior Iranian officials. Reports suggest that rewards worth around 1 billion rupees (about $10 million) have been announced for information on 10 key Iranian leaders believed to be part of the inner circle of Iran’s leadership. According to the reported list, the targets include senior officials such as Ali Asghar Hejazi, the Deputy Chief of Staff in the Supreme Leader’s office, Ali Larijani, an adviser to the Supreme National Security Council, and Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni. However, Iran’s newly appointed Supreme Leader Mustafa Khamenei is not included in the bounty list. Mustafa Khamenei has been widely described as a “mystery man” in Iranian politics due to his limited public appearances and the secrecy surrounding his leadership during the war. His absence from public view has sparked widespread speculation about his condition. Some American and British media reports claim that Mustafa Khamenei may have been seriously injured during a strike on Tehran on February 28. According to these reports, he was allegedly taken to intensive care at Sina University Hospital, with severe injuries including damage to his leg and internal organs. Some unconfirmed claims even suggest he may be in a coma. Iranian officials have not fully confirmed these reports but acknowledged that he suffered minor injuries during the attack.
