According to reports, he is undergoing treatment in Qom city. They are not able to participate in any decision, that is, they are unable to run the country.
56-year-old Mohtaba Khamenei became the Supreme Leader of Iran after his father Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. His father, mother, wife and son were killed in US-Israeli attacks on February 28. Mohtaba was also injured in the same attack. No public appearance of his has been recorded since then.
