Iran's Khamenei Says Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis Act Independently, Rejects ‘Proxy Force’ Accusations

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iran’s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iran’s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives. #Iran #Khamenei #IranProxies #MiddleEast #Hezbollah #Hamas #Houthis #ProxyForce #IranianPolicy #RegionalConflicts #Geopolitics #IranSupport #IndependentGroups #MiddleEastTensions #IranianInfluence #AyatollahKhamenei Also Read Syria's Future: Insights from the Arab Spring's Democratic Transitions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-future-lessons-from-arab-spring-nations-011-4022149.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Halts Implementation of New Stricter Headscarf Law Amid Protests Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-pauses-strict-headscarf-law-implementation-011-4018843.html?ref=DMDesc Iranian Singer Parastoo Ahmady Arrested For Performing In Online Youtube Concert Without Hijab :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-singer-arrested-performing-online-concert-without-hijab-011-4016049.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.121~
