Iranian Army Commander Major General Amir Khatami said Iran will avenge the blood of the 'martyred leader' (Khamenei) and other martyrs with 'even greater determination,' according to reports on Iranian Telegram channels. The statement reiterates Iran's commitment to retaliation amid a wave of threats from Iranian officials.
This is the latest statement from the Iranian army commander, Major General Amir Khatami, following the death of former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. The Zioneer reported earlier today (12:28) that Khatami had vowed revenge; this new statement, issued at 12:58 Jerusalem, repeats the vow with a call for 'even greater determination.' The message comes amid a broader campaign of threats from Iranian officials in recent days, including the Defense Minister and judiciary chief, as funeral preparations for Khamenei continue. The statement has not been independently verified.
