Fars quoted Shamkhani on Friday as saying he is “alive and ready to sacrifice,” in a text message addressed to Iran’s leadership and public, News.Az reports.
Shamkhani was reportedly seriously wounded in a June 13 Israeli strike on his residence and transferred to a hospital in Tehran, according to Nour News, which is close to the Supreme National Security Council.
Iran International had earlier reported, citing sources, that Shamkhani had succumbed to his injuries.
