India, April 7 -- Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran's newly elevated Supreme Leader, is undergoing treatment for a "severe" medical condition in Qom and is reportedly unconscious, according to a report by The Times citing an intelligence assessment.

The report, published Tuesday, said a diplomatic memo based on intelligence inputs from the United States and Israel - shared with Gulf allies - indicates that Khamenei is incapacitated and unable to participate in governance.

"The memo reveals for the first time that Mojtaba Khamenei is being treated in Qom in a severe condition, unable to be involved in any decision-making by the regime," the newspaper reported, adding that it had reviewed the document.
