As Iran marked the anniversary of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini’s death, Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei delivered a strong message warning of what he described as a new phase of “hybrid warfare” against the country. Khamenei claimed Iran’s adversaries had failed on the battlefield and were now trying to weaken public morale through fear, doubt, and division. He urged Iranians to stay united and resist attempts to spread pessimism and distrust.
