Kharazi served as Iran’s Foreign Minister from 1997 to 2005 during President Mohammad Khatami’s administration. He later acted as an advisor to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Reports indicate that he was hospitalised in critical condition following the strike, which coincided with the first day of U.S.-Israeli military operations targeting Iran.
