"🚨 Mojtaba Khamenei narrowly escapes death after U.S.-Israel strike — tensions explode🛑

Mojtaba Khamenei Narrowly Escapes Death as Airstrike Decimates Iran’s Leadership Core

A dramatic and highly contested account has emerged surrounding Mojtaba Khamenei, who reportedly survived a devastating U.S.–Israel airstrike that struck the heart of Iran’s leadership compound in Tehran.

According to multiple reports, Mojtaba stepped out onto the grounds of the complex just moments before missiles hit the residence of his father, Ali Khamenei, Iran’s Supreme Leader at the time. That split-second timing is said to have spared his life in what insiders describe as a near-fatal strike.

A Precision Strike on Iran’s Power Center

On February 28, U.S. and Israeli forces allegedly carried out a coordinated attack after obtaining intelligence on a high-level meeting chaired by Ali Khamenei. The operation reportedly involved Israeli fighter jets launching Blue Sparrow ballistic missiles directly at key buildings within the heavily guarded compound.

The strike was devastating.

Ali Khamenei, along with several senior officials and members of his family, was reportedly killed inside the residence. The attack is said to have targeted multiple structures simultaneously, suggesting a deliberate attempt to dismantle Iran’s top command structure in one decisive blow.

“He Was Gone Just Minutes Before”

Details from an alleged recording of Mazaher Hosseini, a senior official tied to the Supreme Leader’s office, provide a chilling account of the moments before impact.

“Mojtaba was also targeted,” Hosseini reportedly said. “But he had stepped out just before the missile barrage at 9:32 a.m.”

The narrow timing meant Mojtaba avoided direct impact. However, the cost was personal and severe. His wife was reportedly killed instantly in the strike, while Mojtaba himself sustained minor injuries to his leg.

Coordinated Destruction Across the Complex

According to the same account, Israeli forces struck multiple locations within the compound at once. Three missiles reportedly hit the Supreme Leader’s residence directly, while additional strikes targeted nearby homes belonging to Mojtaba and his brother, Mostafa Khamenei.

While some structures were heavily damaged, others were spared from total destruction, with reports indicating that Mostafa’s residence remained largely intact.
