In new message, Iranian leader says regime’s enemies at home and abroad should not have security

Iran’s new Supreme Leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei is calling for the enemies of his nations to have their “security” taken away, in his latest message to the public.

Khamenei makes the remarks in a statement issued on his behalf and addressed to President Masoud Pezeshkian offering condolences after Israel killed Intelligence Minister Esmail Khatib.

The ayatollah says the ministry should respond by voiding the security of Iran’s “internal and external enemies.”

Khamenei hasn’t been seen since he was named as supreme leader, succeeding his father, the 86-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on the first day of the war on Feb. 28.

American and Israeli officials have suggested that Mojtaba Khamenei was hurt in the war.
