The Iranian leadership reportedly issued additional belligerent statements during the funeral of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, vowing to provide missile aid to the resistance front and demanding that the US guarantee a Lebanon ceasefire and territorial integrity as part of any understanding. The statements, according to reports from the funeral, expand on earlier threats to liberate Jerusalem and reject peace with Israel.
This report adds details to the Iranian leadership's declarations at the funeral of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, as The Zioneer reported earlier at 19:04 Jerusalem. The new statements reportedly include a vow that aid to the 'resistance front' will be provided through missiles as well as political pressure via negotiations, 'all as necessary.' The leadership also stated that it had promised the American side that the territorial integrity of regional countries and an end to the war against Iran's allies, including Lebanon, must be part of any understanding with the US. These declarations expand on earlier threats — liberation of Jerusalem, no peace with America, and no recognition of Israel — reported at the same funeral. The statements are attributed to Iranian state-linked sources and have not been independently verified. The funeral of Khamenei, who died days ago, has become a platform for the regime's leadership to signal its regional posture as negotiations with the US continue.
