Iran claims its president was injured in Israeli airstrike last month

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian suffered a minor leg injury while escaping an Israeli airstrike last month, according to Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency.

The alleged attack happened on June 16 at a secure government facility in Western Tehran, where Pezeshkian was holding a meeting with other senior officials, according to the outlet, which is managed by Iran’s powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

Six bombs or missiles reportedly targeted entry and exit points to block attempts to evacuate the building and disrupt air flow inside. Power was also cut to the targeted floor, after the blasts, the report said.

The officials escaped through an emergency hatch, according to the report. Pezeshkian and several others reportedly suffered minor leg injuries during the escape.
