Khamenei's face was disfigured in the attack on the supreme leader's compound in central Tehran and he suffered a significant injury to one or both legs, all three sources said... The 56-year-old is nonetheless recovering from his wounds and remains mentally sharp... He is taking part in meetings with senior officials via audio conferencing and is engaged in decision-making on major issues including the war and negotiations ‌with Washington...

Ok.

The question of whether Khamenei's health allows him to run state affairs...

You just said he was already working. What question? How would 6 week old facial and leg injuries prevent him from running state affairs?

Writing an article about how Iranian society is responding to largely invisible leadership is fine, but that's only very briefly mentioned at the end of the article. The rest of the article is a whole lot of words to only say "we don't know much about him".

This is just ableist JAQing off.
