Ahmad Alamolhoda, Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s representative in Iran’s northeastern province of Khorasan Razavi, said on Friday that Iranians should not be alarmed by the deaths of commanders, nuclear program officials, or the loss of social assets.
“The enemy wants to frighten us through psychological and military operations. Fear leads to weakness, but the people have not wavered,” he said during Friday prayers sermons.
Echoing Khamenei’s recent remarks delivered from a bunker, Alamolhoda called on citizens to continue their normal lives.
“Why should we evacuate cities? That’s exactly what the enemy wants—to disrupt your daily lives so you abandon the field,” he said.
