Iran acting president a conservative with ties to Khamenei

Mokhber is around 68 years old and became first vice president in August 2021. He is originally from Khuzestan province in Iran's southwest. He was a deputy governor there, and during the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s served as a member of Iran's Revolutionary Guard medical corps. One of Mokhber's relatively few high-profile appearances came when he and three other senior Iranian officials went to Moscow in Oct 2022 to complete a sale of Iranian drones and ballistic missiles to Russia, for use in Ukraine.
