TEHRAN – The wife of Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon has reported that Mojtaba Amani’s recovery is progressing well following injuries sustained in a widespread Israeli pager attack in Lebanon. 

In a social media update on Wednesday, Narges Ghadirian expressed her gratitude to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and the Iranian populace for their supportive prayers.

On Tuesday night, the Israeli regime executed a terrorist strike that triggered explosions in communication devices known as pagers across various locations in Lebanon, leading to multiple fatalities and over 3000 injuries. 

Iran’s ambassador to Lebanon was among those affected by the pager explosions in Beirut.

Additionally, the Iranian embassy in Beirut refuted all speculation regarding the severe injury of the Iranian ambassador in the terrorist incident that rocked Lebanon, as stated in a message on its X account.

On his own X account, Amani said it is an “honor” that his blood was “mixed” with the blood of the Lebanese people during the Tuesday attack. “This proud country has stood with dignity and pride since the first day of the Battle of al-Aqsa.”

Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement has been attacking Israeli positions in the occupied territories since the regime began its latest war in Gaza on October 7. The Resistance group has managed to vacate all settlements north of the occupied territories where tens of thousands of Israelis used to reside.
