In a fiery televised address, Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei lashed out at Israel and also warned the United States of dire consequences if military action is taken against his country. Iran’s supreme leader warned United States that joining Israeli strikes will ‘result in irreparable damage for them.’
“Israel made a huge mistake, and they will face dire consequences. We will show no mercy to its rulers,” he asserted in his first television address to the nation after the recent conflict.
His remarks came hours after US President Donald Trump called for Iran’s “unconditional surrender.” In response, Khamenei delivered a stern warning to Washington, emphasising that any strike against Iran would spark “serious and irreparable consequences.” He cautioned the US against engaging in military conflict, suggesting that such a move would result in substantial damage to American interests.
The tension between Iran and Israel on Wednesday escalated with Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei promising to give a strong response to the terrorist Zionist regime. In a post on X, said, “In the name of God, the battle begins.” Khamenei’s big warning came after Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps on Wednesday said that hypersonic missiles were used during the latest attack on Israel.
Iran launched some 30 ballistic missiles at Israel in two barrages overnight, the IDF spokesperson confirmed, claiming that most of the projectiles were intercepted and there were no injuries.
Iran has fired close to 400 ballistic missiles and hundreds of drones at Israel in retaliation for the Israeli attack since Friday.
Israeli sources confirmed approximately 35 impact sites that have left 24 people dead and more than 647 injured, ten of them in serious condition.
