For nearly six months, Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has remained almost completely out of public view. Since taking the country's highest political and religious office after the death of his father,

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, there has been no clearly contemporaneous photograph, video or audio recording of him released publicly, according to The Atlantic.

His disappearance has triggered fresh speculation over his health and raised a larger question for Iran: who is making the country's most important decisions? Iranian officials insist Mojtaba is alive and healthy. But the lack of recent public appearances has kept the rumours alive.
