Iranās 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. He emphasized that the martyrdom of leaders like Hassan Nasrallah and Yehya Sinwar has not diminished the resistance movement, as their ideology and mission continue to inspire.
