Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei spends most of the day sleeping and drunk, while people in most parts of the country don’t have access to clean water and electricity, according to a social media account linked to Israel’s national intelligence agency. “How can a leader lead a country with so much scarcity of water, electricity and life when he spends half the day sleeping and half drunk?” the Mossad’s Persian account wrote on X on Friday. “Taking drugs and talking to spirits are not desirable qualities for a person leading a country,” the account wrote on July 9.
Mossad’s post reveals
The Mossad post comes from a new premium subscription account created last month, Fox News reported, claiming to be the official spokesperson for the Mossad in Persian – Iran’s official language – although the Israeli intelligence agency has not officially confirmed the account’s affiliation. The account has made several posts over the past month about Khamenei’s health and the state of Iran, including a lack of clean water, electricity and education.
Key things said by this account
One post on the account touted the appointment of a newly appointed, but officially unnamed, commander of the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, the command headquarters of the Iranian armed forces. After Tasnim News Agency, Iran’s semi-official news agency linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, reported that Iran would not reveal the commander’s identity for his safety, the Mossad-linked account said it already knew his name and urged Iranians to send in their guesses.
