From Iran leader: US challenged by backing for Palestine, arms transfers
Iranian supreme leader Khamenei, whose statement to Iranian youth is being read out on state TV, says that the US’s main challenge in the Middle East is Tehran’s support for Palestine.
He says the US will be defeated in any confrontation.
According to Iran’s Press TV, he also appears to confirm that Iran is sending weapons to “resistance forces” in the region, likely referring to Lebanon’s Hezbollah and Yemen’s Houthi rebels. He says the US is trying to thwart the transfers.
