Hunt for the invisible Ayatollah: Spies have three theories about Khamenei's whereabouts, while others spread extraordinary rumours about his private life. Yet there is a final irony…

The article discusses the mysterious disappearance of Mojtaba Khamenei, the newly appointed Supreme Leader of Iran, following the alleged death of his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in a U.S.-Israeli airstrike in February. Mojtaba has not made any public appearances since assuming leadership, nor has he released any recorded messages or addressed the nation, breaking with decades-long tradition. He notably missed his father’s funeral and the Nowruz holiday celebrations. Speculation surrounds his current status, with some suggesting he might be incapacitated or hiding in a secure location due to ongoing tensions between Iran and Western powers. A former Mossad official questions whether Mojtaba is even alive or fully capable of leading the country.
