A New York Times report, citing sources, provides new details on the severe injuries sustained by Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei. He has already undergone three surgeries on one leg, with doctors not ruling out the future need for a prosthesis. Additionally, his face and lips are severely burned, making it difficult for him to speak, and he has also had surgery on his arm. These reports contradict earlier Iranian government claims that Khamenei is in good health and in full control, as he has yet to make a public appearance since a reported strike on Tehran in late February.
