Iran’s Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, has committed to seeking justice for the death of his father, the late Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He described this retaliation as a national requirement and an unavoidable result.
This declaration was shared on Mojtaba Khamenei’s verified Telegram account during the memorial events for the former leader. Ali Khamenei died during American-Israeli airstrikes on February 28, an event that sparked current regional hostilities.
In his announcement, the current leader asserted that the individuals behind the deaths of his father and other conflict victims will face consequences. The text stated that they promise to secure justice for the late leader and all martyrs of the recent wars from the perpetrators. Furthermore, Khamenei indicated that global allies would assist in this effort, describing it as a divine duty that will be fulfilled by freedom-seekers worldwide. This message represents one of the most assertive public statements made by Mojtaba Khamenei since he succeeded his father.
