WANA (Jun 13) – In a televised message tonight, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, addressed the Iranian nation and stated: The wicked and vile Zionist regime has made a grave and disastrous mistake—one that will bring devastating consequences and lead to its misery. The great nation of Iran can rest assured that the Armed Forces, with the support of the people, will respond with strength and deal heavy blows to this regime. The Zionist regime will not escape unscathed from this heinous act.

 

Ayatollah Khamenei extended both congratulations and condolences on the martyrdom of a number of IRGC commanders, scientists, and civilians, and emphasized: The Iranian nation will neither overlook the precious blood of its martyrs nor tolerate the violation of its airspace.

 

The Leader highlighted the unified voice across the country—from officials and political factions to the general public—regarding the necessity of a forceful response to the malicious, vile, and terrorist nature of the Zionist regime. He said: God willing, through decisive action, life will be made bitter for them. There will be no appeasement.

 

Ayatollah Khamenei added: They must not think they can strike and simply walk away. They started this confrontation, they initiated this war, and we will not allow them to escape responsibility for this major crime.

 

He stressed that: The Armed Forces will undoubtedly deliver powerful blows to the Zionist regime. The Iranian people and officials stand behind the Armed Forces, and—by God’s permission—the Islamic Republic will prevail over the Zionist regime.

 

In conclusion, Ayatollah Khamenei assured the Iranian people: Be confident—there will be no hesitation or shortcoming in this regard.
