Hassan Khomeini, the grandson of Islamic Republic founder Ruhollah Khomeini, described the war with Israel and the United States as the “lesser jihad” and said a “greater jihad” to end disputes and preserve victory begins now.

He said the Islamic Republic had overcome the naval blockade with “prudence,” adding that such action could bring down what he called the world’s giants.
