Operation Al-Aqsa Flood: A decisive blow
Operation Al-Aqsa Flood was a decisive blow to "Israel", the Iranian leader further stressed, adding that the operation happened right on time and destroyed the enemy's plans.
"Al-Aqsa Flood put the Zionist regime on a track that shall end with nothing but its decay and destruction. The [October 7] operation destroyed the great international conspiracy for the West Asia region. This is the miracle of Al-Aqsa Flood," he affirmed.
Citing Western analysts, he emphasized that Operation Al-Aqsa Flood would change the world, adding that "Israel" suffered a major defeat from the Gaza-based Resistance group.
"The Zionist regime is gradually dissolving in front of the eyes of the people of the world," Sayyed Khamenei affirmed.
He further stressed that what Imam Khomeini predicted about the future of Palestine is being realized today.
Reflecting on the legacy of Raisi, Amir-Abdollahian
In his address, the Iranian leader acknowledged the recent tragic loss of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian in the helicopter crash.
Praising the late President's dedication to serving Iran and its people, the leader honored Raisi and Amir-Abdollahian as "Martyrs of Service," adding that the former distinguished himself from all other Iranian figures by the profound impact he had made.
