An advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader said Sunday that if assassinations of leaders become normalized, no country will enjoy security. The statement, reported by Israeli media, echoes earlier warnings from Iranian officials.
An advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader issued a statement Sunday warning that normalizing the assassination of leaders would undermine global security. The exact wording, as reported, was: 'If assassinations of leaders become normalized, no country will enjoy security.' The statement did not specify a target or a direct threat. The warning follows similar remarks earlier today from Mohsen Rezaei, a senior military advisor to the Supreme Leader, who said that President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu had crossed Iran's red lines and that a 'decisive and proportionate response' is required. Rezaei also warned that if leader assassinations become routine, no country would be secure. It remains unclear whether the current statement is from the same advisor or a different one, and no additional details were provided.
