Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei attended an exhibition at the Imam Khomeini Hussainiya in Tehran on Tuesday, and met with private sector representatives.
The event, like a number others recently, took place within the high-security leadership compound near Pasteur Street, which houses both the hussainiya and the official residence of the Supreme Leader, the so-called the House of Leadership (Beite Rahbari).
These venues serve as Khamenei's administrative and ceremonial hub.
On Sunday, Khamenei led the funeral prayers for two Supreme Court judges killed by an assailant, donning a visibly bulky bulletproof vest during the ceremony at the same hussainiya.
Last month, he also delivered a speech on Syria’s recent developments from this secured location.
Khamenei’s recent repeated use of the hussainiya for public appearances suggests an increasing preference for staying within the confines of his headquarters.
