Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei delivered a message Thursday claiming that the country’s adversaries have shifted tactics after suffering military setbacks, now attempting to weaken public morale and create internal discord.
In his statement, Khamenei emphasized the need for national solidarity when confronting these challenges and cautioned that behaviors fostering pessimism or discouragement among citizens serve to assist hostile forces.
The statement was delivered on his behalf during commemorative events honoring the death anniversary of Ruhollah Khomeini, who founded the Islamic Republic, alongside observances of an important Shi’ite religious occasion.
