Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, speaking in Tehran during the Holy Defense Week, stated that Hezbollah will not surrender even if it loses key commanders in Israel’s attacks on Lebanon. Khamenei emphasized that Israel, backed by the US and Western powers, may possess advanced military technology, but Hezbollah and the Palestinian resistance will ultimately prevail. He urged Muslims to support the return of the Al-Aqsa Mosque to its rightful owners and praised the people of Gaza for their jihad. Khamenei also highlighted that no country dares to attack Iran’s borders, referencing the Iran-Iraq war and warning against external threats.
