New Iranian supreme leader ‘likely disfigured,’ Hegseth says

War Secretary Pete Hegseth said during a Friday morning press briefing that the U.S. "is decimating the radical Iranian regime's military" and that the Islamic Republic's new supreme leader was injured and "likely disfigured."

"Desperate and hiding, they've gone underground, cowering," Hegseth said of Iranian leadership. 

"That's what rats do. We know the new so-called not-so-Supreme leader is wounded and likely disfigured," he said.

Iran's new Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed during the beginning of the war, issued a written statement on Thursday that Hegseth described as "weak." 

"It was a written statement," Hegseth said. "Iran has plenty of cameras and plenty of voice recorders. Why a written statement? I think you know why. His father dead. He's scared, he's injured, he's on the run and he lacks legitimacy. It's a mess for them. Who's in charge? Iran may not even know."
