Iran: Mojtaba Khamenei Speaks of a 'Humiliating Setback' for Trump and Netanyahu

Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei accused the United States and Israel on Thursday of trying to undermine his country's unity after what he called a 'humiliating setback' in the war launched against Iran. In a publicly read message, he stated that Washington and Tel Aviv are attempting to fuel internal divisions and erode public trust. The war began on February 28, 2026, with strikes on Iran, during which former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed. Since coming to power, Mojtaba Khamenei has repeatedly called for national unity against external pressures.
