Iran Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Claims Israel’s Defeat

On Tuesday, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, stated that Israel has suffered an irreparable military and intelligence defeat. 

He expressed his pride in supporting Palestinians but denied Iran’s involvement in the recent Hamas attack on Israel that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of Israelis and foreigners.

Khamenei’s Statement:

Khamenei stated in his first televised address since the attack, “We kiss the hands of those who planned the attack on the Zionist regime. Those who link Iran to the Hamas attack on Israel are mistaken.”

U.S. General’s Warning:

Khamenei’s report comes after a warning from the United States’ top general, General Charles Q Brown, cautioning Iran not to become further embroiled in the crisis and emphasizing the U.S. desire to prevent the conflict from escalating. Iran openly supports Hamas and has denied direct involvement in the weekend attack.

Iran’s Stance:

Iran has not hidden its support for Hamas and has applauded the recent attack. However, it maintains that it was not directly involved in the operation.

The statements and actions of Iran, the United States, and other regional actors continue to shape the complex dynamics of the Israel-Palestine conflict. The situation remains highly sensitive and fraught with geopolitical implications.
