Mojtaba Khamenei denied Iran’s role in recent attacks in Turkey and Oman, calling them “false flag” operations designed to damage regional ties. In a message marking the Iranian year 1405 and Eid al-Fitr, he accused the “Zionist enemy” of orchestrating such incidents to create discord. He claimed Iran’s armed forces achieved “resounding triumphs” in the ongoing “third imposed war,” asserting national unity defeated attempts to spread fear. Reflecting on past confrontations, he said challenges strengthened cohesion. Khamenei outlined a 2026 “resistance economy” strategy focused on national unity, welfare, and resilience, while warning media against amplifying weaknesses. He also stressed stronger regional cooperation with neighbouring Muslim nations. (PC: India Today)
