๐ค๐ง Recent reports claiming the death of Ali Shamkhani, a top advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, have been debunked! ๐ซ Initial news from Israeli media suggested Shamkhani had died from injuries sustained in Israeli airstrikes.
However, Iranian state media swiftly denied these claims. The most compelling evidence? Shamkhani himself appeared alive and well on live television! He was seen at a mass funeral in Tehran for military commanders and nuclear scientists, even giving a televised interview. While he appeared visibly weakened and used a cane, he recounted being trapped under rubble after a blast.
This incident highlights the intense information warfare in the Middle East, where conflicting reports often emerge. While Ali Akbar Velayati, another senior advisor, had a health scare with COVID-19 in 2020, he has since recovered and remains active.
Shamkhani's public appearance has definitively confirmed his survival, putting an end to the speculation. โ
