Iran's newly appointed supreme leader, Ayatollah Mojtabah Khamenei, narrowly escaped death during an Israeli missile attack on his residence on the 28th of last month, according to internal Iranian reports. Mojtabah was reportedly walking in his garden at the time of the attack, which struck the residence of former supreme leader Ali Khamenei. Eyewitness accounts indicate that while the missile did hit close to his home, Mojtabah's decision to be outside at that moment was seen by some as a sign of divine intervention, as expressed by his aide, Mazaher Hosseini, in a recorded message to senior clerics and Revolutionary Guard officials.
