Social media platform X has suspended the Hebrew-language account of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, a day after it was opened.
A note on his @Khamenei_Heb account says it has been suspended for violating X’s rules.
The suspension comes hours after the account posted a message saying “The Zionist regime made a mistake. It erred in its calculations on Iran. We will cause it to understand what kind of strength, ability, initiative, and will the Iranian nation has.”
Rules on X, formerly known as Twitter, ban content from “Violent and hateful entities,” but the guidelines make an exception for posts from “state or governmental entities.”
There is no immediate comment from X.
