Khamenei strikes revive Putin’s previous statements

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s comments from last June about Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei have resurfaced in public attention.

1news.media reports that, when asked, “What would you do if Israel and the U.S. killed Iran’s leader Ali Khamenei?” Putin responded:

“I do not even want to discuss that possibility.”

It should be noted that yesterday, Israeli and U.S. forces launched a military operation against Iran, reportedly killing multiple high-ranking officials, including Khamenei himself.
