Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, promised a strong reaction to the deadly strikes by Israel on Iranian land.
He called the attacks a “cruel and criminal act” that hit homes and neighborhoods.
“To the great Iranian nation, at dawn today, the Zionist regime extended its filthy, bloodstained hand in a crime against our beloved country, revealing its wickedness more than ever by targeting civilian areas.
“This regime must expect a severe punishment,” Khamenei said in a statement.

“With this crime, the Zionist regime has paved the way for itself toward a bitter and painful fate — and it will undoubtedly face it,” he warned.
