New Tehran Billboard Unveiled With Message on Israel
WANA (May 28) – A new billboard was unveiled at Palestine Square in Tehran, featuring a message about the future of Israel and the phrase: “The Zionist regime will not see the next 15 years.”

Part of the message referred to remarks made 10 years ago by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, stating: “The unstable Zionist regime and the cancerous tumor of Israel are approaching the final stages of their ominous existence and, by God’s grace, in line with the firm and forward-looking statement made 10 years ago, they will not see 25 years from that date.”
