Iran’s Supreme Leader praises recent missile attacks on Israel, vowing further action if necessary, escalating regional tensions.
Iran’s top religious leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, gave a strong message saying he’s totally behind his supporters and ready to keep fighting with Israel.
In his first Friday prayers in a while, Khamenei praised Iran’s big missile strikes on Israel, calling it a right and win for them, using religion, law, and international rules to back it up.
He even talked about the recent Hamas attacks on Israel and how he’s happy about the people who died in the fight.

Khamenei’s show-up right after a ceremony for Hezbollah’s dead leader Hassan Nasrallah highlighted Iran’s strong ties to its friends in the region and its tough attitude towards Israel.
The fact that he gave this speech right after the Iranian Foreign Minister went to Lebanon and gave out aid to Hezbollah and other friends in the area shows Iran’s ongoing support for them, even as things get more heated.
The top leader’s clear warning about more missile strikes on Israel is a big sign that things could get even more tense, showing just how risky and unpredictable the whole situation is.
