The office of the Supreme Religious Authority; His Eminence Sayed Ali al-Husseini al-Sistani, issued a statement condemning the Zionist attacks on Iran.
The statement is as follows:
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
The crime committed by the occupying entity of Palestine on Friday morning, which resulted in the martyrdom of a number of scientists, military leaders, and Iranian civilians, including women and children, and the targeting of several institutions and scientific centers in the country, once again confirms the aggressive and dangerous nature of this entity. While we pray for mercy and high ranks for the noble martyrs, extend our sincere condolences to their honorable families, and ask God for the swift recovery of the wounded and injured, we strongly condemn this criminal act and call on the international community to pressure this aggressive entity and its supporters to prevent the recurrence of such attacks.
We ask Allah Almighty for the continued honor and elevation of the noble Iranian people, and there is no power and no strength except with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great.
