Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei issues a message warning that Iran’s “enemies,” after being defeated on the battlefield, are now trying to weaken public resilience and encourage internal divisions. In the message, he calls for national unity and argues that any action that creates pessimism or frustration among the public effectively helps the enemy.
The message is delivered as part of ceremonies marking the anniversary of the death of Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic, alongside a major Shia holiday. According to the accounts, Khamenei’s statement is presented on his behalf during these events.
The reporting frames the warning as part of Iran’s broader messaging about domestic cohesion in response to external pressure. No specific “enemy” or battlefield is identified in the excerpts provided. The focus is on the alleged shift from battlefield defeat to efforts to influence public sentiment and political or social unity within Iran.
