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’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has issued a bold proclamation, predicting the inevitable elimination of Israel while asserting that Hezbollah remains an indomitable force. In a powerful address, Khamenei dismissed the belief held by the U.S., Israel, and their allies that regional resistance has been weakened, calling it a grave miscalculation.
