TEHRAN ; Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian responded to reports that the US may be considering conducting a strike on Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, saying this would be viewed as a declaration of war on the Iranian people in a post on X/Twitter on Sunday.
“Any aggression against the supreme leader of our country is tantamount to all-out war against the Iranian nation,” he wrote.
“If the people of Iran face hardship and difficulties in their lives, one of the main reasons for it is the longstanding enmity and inhumane sanctions imposed by the US government and its allies,” he accused.
