AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, said Wednesday that the United States is a “definite accomplice” to the crimes committed by the Zionist regime against the residents of the besieged Gaza Strip.
Speaking at a meeting with members of the Lorestan Province’s Martyrs Commemoration Congress, Ayatollah Khamenei said the US somehow manages the atrocities committed in Gaza.
“In these crimes, America’s hands are up to the arm in the blood of the oppressed, the children, and the patients,” he said.
Calling attention to the hasty trips of the leaders of “cruel” and “evil” Western powers to the occupied territories, the Supreme Leader said those visits were intended to salvage the Zionist regime from annihilation.
“If the hazard of annihilation was not threatening the occupying regime, these world villains would not have felt that they needed to express solidarity (with Israeli) one after another,” he remarked.
This, according to Ayatollah Khamenei, shows that Hamas’s blow has been very strong and decisive.
“Since it was not able to and will not be able to defeat the [resistance] fighters, the battered, wounded and worn-out Zionist regime, which they are keeping alive by bombs and weapons, is taking its revenge on the defenseless people of Palestine,” he noted.
Israel waged a brutal war on the Gaza Strip on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, a surprise attack on the occupied territories in retaliation for the Israeli regime’s intensified crimes against the Palestinian people.
According to the official WAFA news agency, the Israeli onslaught on Gaza has so far killed more than 6,000 Palestinians and injured 18,000 others.
