Addressing a gathering at the holy shrine of Imam, the reputed scholar strongly condemned brazen act of aggression by the Israeli regime against the Qatari soil.
“The Zionist regime's brazen aggression against Qatar has exposed to the world the truth of the Imam's warnings 50 years ago,”Seyyed Hassan Khomeini said.
Israel launched airstrikes on the headquarters of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas in the Qatari capital, Doha, in what was described as an "assassination operation" that claimed the lives of several Hamas officials as well as civilians in the Persian Gulf Arab country.
Israel’s attempt to assassinate Hamas leaders has ignited outrage and drawn condemnations around the globe.
The strike has once again brought under the spotlight Israel’s impunity and Washington’s support for the Tel Aviv regime.
Senior Iranian officials hasve condemned the Israeli regime’s aggression on Qatari soil, stressing the need for Muslim nations to “act in unison” to confront the illegal entity’s atrocities and its “looming hegemony.”
Seyyed Hassan Khomeini further condemned the unconditional support the United States has been throwing behind the Israeli entity to spread chaos in the region.
He also lauded the resistance by Iran against the Israeli expansionist agenda.
“The issue is not the Islamic Republic's nuclear power, nor missiles; rather, the Zionist regime, with the support of the United States, has launched a plan to dominate the entire Middle East.”
“Today, the scene is clear; the issue is not the Islamic Republic's nuclear power, nor the missiles.”
But the real agenda is that the regime has been seeking to dominate the West Asia region with support and backing of the United States, he stated.
Seyyed Hassan Khomeini sought the Muslim and regional unity to confront the vicious US-Israeli agenda and policies.
He concluded by saying that the only way to decisively address the recklessness of the Israeli regime is for the Muslim world to act in unison.
The Israeli aggression drew a deluge of criticism from world leaders and regional resistance groups as well as rights organizations.
Qatar’s Foreign Ministry earlier condemned the “cowardly Israeli attack” on the Hamas headquarters in Doha, calling it a violation of international law and a threat to Qatar's security.
