The Iranian leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei on Sunday called on Muslim nations to sever connections with "Israel" with the goal of depriving the regime of crucial resources.

"Imam Khamenei called on Islamic governments to cut off their political relationship with the Zionist regime at least for a limited period of time," a statement on his official website read.

The Iranian leader disapproved of certain Islamic governments for not openly condemning Israeli atrocities, stating that such silence was unacceptable.

Some Muslim countries condemnations of the Zionist regime’s crimes in international organizations was only a gesture. This isn’t acceptable. The main move needed by Muslim governments’ is to cut the regime's lifeline by blocking the supply of energy & commodities to that regime.

— Khamenei.ir (@khamenei_ir) November 19, 2023

"The main thing that needs to be done is to cut off the lifeline of the Zionist regime. Islamic governments must prevent energy and goods from reaching this regime," Sayyed Ali Khamenei was quoted as saying.

The Iranian leader criticized the US, Germany, France, and the UK for backing "Israel" in its aggression against Palestinians, saying "the people of Europe and the US should settle the issue regarding this situation and show that they are not supporters of racial discrimination."

Expansion of battle inevitable

Since the start of the genocide, Iran has issued warnings multiple times to the US and "Israel" that the increased intensity of the aggression against civilians in Gaza is making the expansion of war unavoidable.

Just a week ago, Iran announced that it updated its air defense systems in response to renewed threats.

On November 16, US President Joe Biden asked China to urge Iran to refrain from actions perceived as 'provocative' in the Middle East, as shared by a senior US official after a four-hour meeting between Biden and China's Xi Jinping on Wednesday.

A report published by the New York Times three days prior stated that Biden rejected the Pentagon's proposal to continue their bombings in Syria, in fear of provoking "a wider conflict with Iran." 

Moments ago, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that key foreign policy representatives from the Palestinian Authority and four Muslim-majority nations are set to visit on Monday and Tuesday.

The delegation will consist of foreign ministers from the West Bank's Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, and Indonesia, along with the secretary-general of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation.
