Khamenei: US Will Suffer Irreparable Harm if It Enters Conflict Militarily
In a series of strongly worded remarks posted on the official X account of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Zionist regime’s recent attack on Iranian territory was condemned as a malicious act, allegedly carried out with increasing suspicion of US involvement. “The Zionist regime’s malicious attack on our country took place at a time when Iranian officials were indirectly engaged in negotiations with the US. There was no indication on the part of Iran that signaled a military move,” one post read. Khamenei’s office warned that any direct military involvement by the United States in the unfolding crisis would lead to consequences beyond repair: “The harm the US will suffer will definitely be irreparable if they enter this conflict militarily.” The posts also implied growing certainty about Washington’s role in the offensive, suggesting that: “It was already suspected that the US was involved in the malicious move carried out by the Zionist regime, but considering their recent remarks, this suspicion is growing stronger day by day.” The rhetoric underscores escalating regional tensions and comes amid stalled backchannel diplomacy between Tehran and Washington.
