Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian was reportedly injured in an Israeli airstrike last month that targeted a high-level meeting of the Supreme National Security Council in Tehran.
The report, published by the Fars News Agency—considered close to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)—claims the strike occurred on June 16, three days after the outbreak of hostilities between Iran and Israel.
The attack reportedly targeted a secure government compound located on the lower slopes of western Tehran, where President Pezeshkian and several senior officials were attending a crisis meeting.
Among those present were Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Judiciary Chief Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Eje’i.
According to the report, multiple missiles struck the access points of the building in what appeared to be a calculated attempt to trap those inside.
Power to the facility was cut during the attack, but officials managed to escape through an emergency hatch. President Pezeshkian and several others reportedly sustained minor leg injuries while fleeing.
The Fars report has renewed concerns within Iran’s security establishment about possible intelligence leaks. Iranian officials are said to be investigating the possibility that Israeli forces had access to classified information about the meeting’s location and timing.
In an interview with American conservative commentator Tucker Carlson last week, Pezeshkian directly accused Israel of attempting to assassinate him. “They tried to bombard the area in which we were holding that meeting,” he said, suggesting that Israeli intelligence had insider support.
Fars echoed this concern, citing unnamed officials who speculated about the potential infiltration of an Israeli agent into Iran’s intelligence or security apparatus. “The accuracy of the strike raises serious questions,” the outlet noted.
The incident took place amid a dramatic escalation of tensions between the two longtime regional adversaries. On June 13, Israel launched a wide-ranging military campaign against Iran, targeting nuclear and ballistic missile infrastructure across the country.
Iran responded with a barrage of rocket attacks on Israeli cities and military installations.
The hostilities lasted nearly two weeks, resulting in dozens of casualties on both sides, including civilian deaths. The United States intervened on June 24, striking three nuclear facilities in Iran, in what it described as an effort to prevent further proliferation risks. A ceasefire was announced two days later, though the situation remains volatile.
