“Victory comes from Allah and it is close,” he writes.
In broken Hebrew, Khamenei tweets a message threatening that the “blows of the uprising front will become stronger and more painful on the worn and rotting body of the Zionist regime.”
בעזרת השם, מכות חזית ההתקוממות יהפכו חזקות וכואבות יותר על הגוף השחוק והנרקב של המשטר הציוני.

Meanwhile, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards claims that it targeted “three military bases” near Tel Aviv, in a statement carried by news agency ISNA.
