On Monday, Larijani called for Muslim unity
Jerusalem:
Israeli media has claimed that its military has targeted Iran’s security chief, Ali Larijani, in an overnight airstrike. According to a Times of Israel report, it remains unclear if Larijani, the secretary of Iran’s National Security Council, was killed or injured in the strike.
Iran has not yet commented on the reports of any attack on Larijani.
The reports came a day after Iran’s secretary of the Supreme National Security Council issued a message to the Muslim world saying that Tehran remains “steadfast” in its fight against the US and Israel.
Larijani expressed disappointment at what he perceived as a lack of support from Muslim-majority countries when Iran came under attack.
“Iran was subjected to a treacherous American-Zionist aggression that occurred during negotiations and whose aim was to dismantle Iran. This aggression led to the martyrdom of the great and self-sacrificing leader of the Islamic Revolution and a number of civilians and military commanders,” he said on Monday.
