Kamal Kharazi, a senior adviser to Iran's supreme leader, sustained injuries during a US-Israeli strike on the Iranian capital, Media reported, citing the country's semi-official Mehr News Agency.
"In today's bombing of residential homes in Tehran by the American-Zionist enemy, Dr Kamal Kharazi was injured," Mehr stated in its report on Wednesday.
The veteran diplomat, who previously held the post of foreign minister from 1997 to 2005 during the presidency of
reformist ex-president Mohammad Khatami, is reported to have been targeted in this recent military action.
According to The Times of Israel, which cited the newspapers Shargh, Etemad, and Ham Mihan, Kharazi's home in Tehran was targeted earlier on Wednesday in the US-Israeli strike.
While the semi-official Mehr News Agency confirmed his injuries following the strike on residential areas, the outlet did not provide details about the extent of the senior official's condition.
