The attack targeted the office compound of Iran's leadership, with Khamenei reportedly knocked to the ground by the blast wave. According to Fars News Agency, Mazaher Hosseini, director general of protocol at the supreme leader's office, confirmed that Khamenei suffered injuries to his kneecap and lower back. Hosseini stated, "The back injury has improved during this period, and the kneecap injury will soon heal as well. He is in full health."

Khamenei has not been seen in public since the attack, fueling further speculation.
