Iran’s Khamenei warns against divisions after ‘enemy’s battlefield defeat’

Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei says the US and Israel have failed militarily in their war and have now shifted to a campaign aimed at sowing internal division.

In a written message, Khamenei said the “oppressive system” led by the United States cannot accept a strong and independent Iran, and described Israel as a “fabricated outpost” of that system.

“The enemy – having failed militarily and experienced deep humiliation – now wages a hybrid war focusing on two points: the people’s endurance and miscalculations by officials. Their primary tool is sowing doubt, despair, fear and division,” he said.

“Any action that breeds cynicism or despair among the people is a form of helping the enemy of this country and its people,” and urged all Iranians to respond with “steadfastness, clear-sightedness and unity”.
