Iran pledged to avenge the assassination of former supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a written statement attributed to Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei on Saturday, The Jerusalem Post reports.
“We pledge to avenge your pure blood and the blood of all the martyrs of these two wars by holding their criminal and disgraced killers accountable,” the statement read, adding that such vengeance was “the demand of [the Iranian] nation.”
The statement went on to threaten the “criminals,” saying they “will take their dream of dying peacefully in their beds with them to their graves.”
“They must understand that this matter does not depend upon my presence or that of any other officials,” the statement added.
