“The Hindustan Times” reports that Israel used Blue Sparrow ballistic missiles in the attack, and Mojtaba Khamenei escaped death because he left the building literally seconds before the impact.
Ali Khamenei is dead. This is how his son escaped death
According to a leaked recording of an internal Iranian meeting, Mojtaba was in the same room as his father, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, just before the attack. However, he went out to the courtyard to “take care of a small matter”, which turned out to be crucial for his survival.
As he was returning towards the stairs, the first of the Israeli rockets hit the part of the building where his father was located. The second rocket hit Mojtaba's private apartment on the upper floor, completely destroying it. A third rocket hit the house of his brother-in-law, Misbah al-Huda Bagheri Kani, killing several family members.
Blue Sparrow. These are missiles capable of precise strikes
Blue Sparrow missiles, used as part of Israel's Operation Epic Fury, were launched precisely and almost simultaneously, intended to eliminate all management inside the complex. The blows were so strong that the body of General Mohammad Shirazi was torn to pieces, and Bagheri Kani was killed by an explosion that “cut his head in half”. Modjtaba suffered only a minor leg injury. He survived only because he was outside the building when the first rocket hit.
According to the recording, his exit was completely accidental and did not result from any warning or intelligence information. After the attack, conflicting information about his health began to circulate in Iran, including rumors that his leg had been amputated or that he had died, although none of this was confirmed. As Iran's new supreme leader, Mojtaba has not appeared in public since the attack, which has only fueled speculation.
The precision of the Israeli attack indicates very detailed knowledge of the layout of the complex and the presence of individual people. The strike was aimed at Iran's top leadership and had a decapitative nature, which is confirmed by the use of Blue Sparrow missiles capable of precisely hitting targets in dense urban areas.
