“This operation demonstrated the authority of the Islamic Republic system and the power of our armed forces, as well as the iron will of the people under the leadership of the supreme leader of the revolution” Ali Khamenei. Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi said this when speaking about Iran's attack on Israel last weekend.
Raisi called the action "necessary" during a speech in Damghan, in the northern province of Semnan, as reported by IRNA, and did not comment on the attack in Esfahan attributed to Israel.
