Leader urges elites in Muslim world to create public demand to cut ties with Israel

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says the elites of the Muslim world shoulder a heavy responsibility vis-à-vis the ongoing developments in Gaza and should create a public demand to cut relations with the Israeli regime.

Ayatollah Khamenei made the remarks in a meeting with a group of commanders and personnel of Iranian Air Force and Army’s Air Defense Force in Tehran on Monday.

The meeting was held on the anniversary of a historic development that came days before the 1979 victory of Iran’s Islamic Revolution that overthrew the former US-backed Pahlavi regime.

The event saw Homafaran, Pahlavi’s air force officers, breaking away from the monarchical regime and pledging allegiance to the late founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini.
