Khamenei’s Strong Warning to the U.S. on Iranian Actions
Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei stated that Tehran has no proxies in the region and that supported groups act independently. U.S. President Trump warned Iran could be held accountable for Houthi attacks, to which Khamenei responded with a warning of severe consequences for U.S. actions against Iran.
On Friday, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei emphasized that Tehran does not have proxies in the region, asserting that the groups it supports operate independently. This statement comes in light of U.S. President Donald Trump’s warning to hold Iran accountable for any attacks by the Yemeni Houthi group, which the U.S. claims is backed by Iran. Khamenei remarked, “America needs to know that if it messes with Iran, it will receive a severe slap.”
In summary, Khamenei’s comments underscore Iran’s stance on its affiliations in the region and serve as a direct warning to the United States regarding potential actions against Tehran. The tension between the U.S. and Iran continues, particularly concerning the activities of the Houthis in Yemen.
