An assassination attempt by whom? Someone on the inside?
OK, from this I gather that it was an Israeli airstrike that missed, or didn't quite get close enough. Might want to give this one the old 48 hours and see what's what treatment.

Iran's new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has been wounded in an Israeli airstrike, according to reports. Iranian state television described Mojtaba Khamenei as “janbaz”, or wounded by the enemy, in the “Ramadan war” - the Iranian media's term for the conflict.

It is unclear if they are referring to the air strike that killed his father, previous supreme leader Ali Khamenei, on February 28. It comes as it was confirmed on Sunday that the 56-year-old would replace his father as the country's new Supreme Leader. The nature of his injury remains unclear.
OK, in 1973 there was the Yom Kippur War, and now there's the Ramadan War in 2026. I guess in 2079 we'll have the Easter War...
