The latest news from Iranian media shows that Ali Shamkhani, the former secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, who was previously declared dead by Israeli media, "is still alive."

On June 20 local time, Iran's Islamic Republic News Agency and Tasnim News Agency reported that under the round-the-clock efforts of doctors, Shamkhani's condition has stabilized, but the reports did not release his latest photos. It was reported that Shamkhani's residence had been attacked by Israel and he was sent to the hospital due to serious injuries.

Shamkhani also wrote an open letter to Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei. In this letter, he wrote, "I am still alive and ready to sacrifice myself at any time... Victory is just around the corner. The name of Iran will continue to shine at the pinnacle of history."

Previously, both Iranian and Israeli media reported that Ali Shamkhani, political advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei and former secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, had been attacked. At that time, some media said he was already dead, while others said he was "seriously injured."

It is understood that Shamkhani was born in 1955 and is one of the founders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. He has served as Iran's highest national security official, defense minister, and held senior positions in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the Ministry of Defense. Shamkhani has a close relationship with Khamenei and is considered one of his important confidants. Shamkhani enjoys a good reputation in diplomatic circles in the United States and Europe and recently served as the main advisor to Iran's team in nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States.
