Khamenei: Iran and its allies will not back down from Israel

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Friday his country and regional backers would not back down from Israel, in an appearance just hours after an Israeli attack in Beirut is believed to have targeted the heir to the slain Hezbollah leader. supported by Tehran.

"The brilliant action of our armed forces a few nights ago was completely legal and legitimate," Iranian leader Khamenei said in a rare appearance at Friday prayers in Tehran, referring to Iran's missile attacks on Israel on Tuesday. .

US President Joe Biden said on Thursday that Israel's response could include strikes on Iran's oil facilities.

The southern Beirut area of ??Dahiye, a stronghold of Iran-backed Hezbollah, came under fresh attacks close to midnight on Thursday after Israel ordered residents to leave their homes in several areas.

The airstrikes targeted Hezbollah official Hashem Safieddine, the rumored successor to its slain leader Hassan Nasrallah, in an underground bunker, Axios reporter Barak Ravid said on the X Network, citing three Israeli officials. Nothing is known about Safieddin's fate, he wrote.

The Israeli military declined to comment, and neither did Hezbollah on the fate of Safieddine, whose brother Sayyed Abdallah Safieddine, who is Hezbollah's representative in Iran, attended Khamenei's speech in Tehran.

Powerful explosions rocked the area near Beirut's main airport in the early hours of Friday, and Lebanese civilians said they were living in constant fear.

US President Joe Biden said he does not believe there will be an "all-out war" in the Middle East, as Israel is considering options for retaliation, but according to him, more must be done to prevent such a thing./ Voa
