Trump Reveals New Details on Mojtaba Khamenei’s Condition, Confident of Victory Over Iran

In a recent radio interview with Glenn Beck, former U.S. President Donald Trump addressed reports about Mojtaba Khamenei’s health, contradicting claims of his death. Trump stated that Mojtaba, son of Iran’s Supreme Leader, was severely injured on his left side, including his arm and leg, but is not dead. He criticized the Iranian regime for presenting a false image of normalcy, saying they stage appearances to maintain the illusion of Mojtaba’s active leadership.

Trump also discussed why the Iranian public has not risen against the regime, attributing it to the brutal repression by security forces. He emphasized the difficulty of protesting under threat of lethal force, noting, "How can you demonstrate when there are machine guns aimed at you?" Regarding the broader conflict, Trump expressed full confidence in an imminent U.S. victory, claiming the Iranian military has been destroyed and praising the U.S. military’s performance.

Additional context from an April report by The New York Times detailed Mojtaba Khamenei’s secretive and heavily guarded condition. He remains in hiding, surrounded by medical staff and President Masoud Pezeshkian, a heart surgeon. Mojtaba has undergone three leg surgeries and awaits a prosthetic limb, while severe burns to his face and lips impair his speech and require future plastic surgeries. Despite these injuries, insiders say he remains mentally sharp and involved in state decisions. To avoid showing weakness, Mojtaba has not released video or audio messages. Communications with him are conducted via handwritten notes transported through a layered courier network to prevent electronic interception.
