Pars Today – Imam Khamenei, in the sermons of the Eid al-Fitr prayers, praised the passionate and meaningful march of the Iranian nation on International Quds Day, held on the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan, stating: “The massive movement of the nation carried various messages for those in the world who need to understand and recognize the Iranian nation, and those messages reached their ears.”
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution, in the second sermon of the Eid al-Fitr prayers, described the ongoing genocide and child-killing by the Zionist regime in Gaza and Lebanon as a source of bitterness for the Islamic Ummah during Ramadan.
The Leader noted: “These crimes were carried out under the shadow of continued aid and support from the United States to the criminal gang usurping Palestine.”
According to Pars Today, quoting the website of the Leader’s office, Imam Khamenei called the Zionist regime a proxy force of colonialists in the region and added: “Westerners repeatedly accuse the brave nations and zealous youth of the region of being proxies, but it is entirely clear that the only proxy force in the region is this corrupt regime, which, through warmongering, genocide, and aggression against other countries, is completing the plans of those nations that set their sights on this region after the World Wars.”
Imam Khamenei, referring to the anti-terrorism claims of colonialists who rule the world with money and media, said: “These very people who, in their statements, label the defense of nations for their rights and lands as terrorism and crime, either turn a blind eye to the explicit genocide and terrorist actions of the Zionists or even assist in such actions.”
The Leader further pointed to the assassinations of figures such as Abu Jihad, Fathi Shaqaqi, Ahmed Yassin, and Imad Mughniyeh in various countries by the Zionist regime, as well as the numerous assassinations of Iraqi scientists in operations conducted by this regime, stating: “The United States and several Western countries defend these blatant terrorist acts, while the rest of the world merely watches.”

Imam Khamenei, strongly condemning the indifference of human rights advocates regarding the martyrdom of more than 20,000 Palestinian children in less than two years, stated: “Of course, the nations of the world, including those in Europe and America, protest against the Zionists and the U.S. to the extent that they become aware of these crimes. If full information were provided, the nations would undoubtedly expand their protests.”
In a summary of the stated realities, the LEader emphasized: “This criminal, wicked, and murderous group must be uprooted from Palestine and the region, and by God’s will, this will happen. Efforts in this regard are a religious, moral, and human duty for all people.”

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution, referring to the steadfast positions of the Islamic Republic regarding the region, stated: “Our positions are fixed, and the enmity of America and the Zionist regime remains as it was in the past.”
Imam Khamenei, at the end of the second sermon, highlighted two important points regarding America’s recent threatening stances: “First, if any vile act comes from outside—which is unlikely—they will certainly face a crushing response. Second, if the enemy, as in some previous years, thinks about inciting sedition inside the country, the nation will deliver a firm response to inciters of sedition, just as it did in previous years.”
The Eid al-Fitr prayers was held this morning, Monday, with unforgettable grandeur and with the participation of the devout and dignified people of Iran across the Islamic Republic. In Tehran, the capital, countless people, with hearts full of hope in the grace and assistance of the Almighty, performed the Eid al-Fitr prayers led by Ayatollah Khamenei at Tehran Grand Musalla and the surrounding streets.
