Message attributed to Iran’s Khamenei Jr vows revenge for ‘martyrs’
A written message attributed to Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei vowed revenge for those killed in the conflict, saying Iran “will not refrain from avenging the blood of its martyrs.”
The message, read by a female presenter on Iranian state television, also said “the tool of closing the Strait of Hormuz must be preserved” and warned that Iran could open “other fronts if necessary.”
It added that Iran seeks friendly relations with neighboring countries and would target only bases from which attacks are launched against it.
The message attributed to Khamenei, the Islamic Republic’s third supreme leader, was released without any indication of his whereabouts, health condition or physical status.
