Pezeshkian has given differing accounts in recent weeks about his access ​to Khamenei, who has not been seen in public since ​he succeeded his father in the role in March.

On July ⁠21, the president said interactions with the supreme leader were “increasing day by day”, but in early August he said communicating with Khamenei ​was “very difficult”.

The late July meeting covered military affairs and the economy, including securing resources, managing foreign exchange and energy use, as well as economic ties with ​foreign partners, according to state media.

In May, state media also ​reported that Pezeshkian had met Khamenei for several hours, in what was then the first ‌publicly ⁠reported meeting between the two since Khamenei became supreme leader.

Khamenei was reportedly seriously injured in the February 28 strike that killed his father and predecessor, Ali Khamenei, on the first day of the US-Israeli war on Iran. He ​had also generally ⁠kept a low public profile before becoming supreme leader.

Basij Organisation deputy Qasem Qoraishi said on Sunday that ​footage and other documentation showing Khamenei among the ​public and ⁠out in the streets, as well as in meetings with armed forces commanders, would be released in the future.

Qoraishi said the footage would “once ⁠again ​bring disgrace upon the enemies and detractors ​of the Iranian people.” The comments appeared aimed at countering speculation about Khamenei’s health ​and lack of public appearances.
