Iran’s new supreme leader delivers worrying threat in first statement

 

“If it refuses, we will take from its assets to the extent we deem appropriate, and if that is not possible, we will destroy its assets to the same extent.

 

“The lever of closing the Strait of Hormuz must certainly continue to be used as well. Studies have also been conducted on opening other fronts in which the enemy has little experience and would be highly vulnerable. Their activation will take place, if the wartime situation continues and in accordance with considerations of expediency,” Khamenei said.

 

In the statement, he also described seeing his father’s body after the strike that killed him.

 

“I had the honor of seeing his body after his martyrdom,” Khamenei said. “What I saw was a mountain of steadfastness, and I was told that the fist of his intact hand had been clenched.”

 

According to Khamenei, several members of his family were also killed in the same attack
