Rumours of Death Proven False: Khamenei’s Aide Ali Shamkhani Says, 'I’m Alive' in Iran

Amid the war with Israel, there is relief news for Ali Khamenei. Khamenei's senior advisor Ali Shamkhani, whose death was reported 5 days ago, has now claimed to be alive himself. Shamkhani has issued a statement saying that I have been injured in Israel's strike, but I am not dead yet.

Israel's state media has published Shamkhani's full statement. It says that Shamkhani is still alive. He was injured in a strike 5 days ago. This strike was carried out by Mossad. Shamkhani is considered to be the right hand of Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei.

The story of advisor Shamkhani

Though Shamkhani's position is that of an advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei, he is also considered to be Khamenei's closest person. Shamkhani is in charge of the nuclear project. In such a situation, Iran was shocked by the way the news of his death came.

Shamkhani has worked in many big departments of Iran. Before becoming Khamenei's advisor, Shamkhani had been the former secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council. Shamkhani's main job is also to coordinate between the president and the supreme leader. Now the way the news of Shamkhani being alive has come out, it can increase Israel's concern.

Iran can now aggressively expand its nuclear programme. According to America, Iran is very close to making nuclear weapons. It just needs Khamenei's permission.

Treatment is going on at a secret location

According to Iranian media, Shamkhani is badly injured and is being treated by Iranian doctors. Khamenei is being treated at secret locations so that Israeli officials do not reach there and strike.

Israel has so far killed 9 nuclear scientists and about 10 military commanders of Iran. Israel has its eyes on those people in Iran who are involved in the nuclear program. The number of such people in Iran is about 3 dozen. These include Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and the President of Iran.
