Iran’s supreme leader's Hebrew X account suspended after posts warning Israel

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's recently launched Hebrew-language account on the platform X was suspended after just two posts, according to the Jerusalem Post.

The posts came in the wake of Israel’s recent strikes on Iranian military targets.

Khamenei's most recent message stated, “The Zionist regime made a mistake in its calculations regarding Iran. We will make it understand the power, ability, initiative, and determination of the Iranian nation." His first post in Hebrew simply read, "In the name of Allah, the merciful."

While Khamenei’s primary X account has often posted in Hebrew, using assertive language against Israel, this new account was swiftly suspended after its initial posts.

Responding to Israel’s strikes on Iran, which reportedly targeted missile manufacturing sites, surface-to-air missile systems, and other defense infrastructure, Khamenei warned against exaggerating or downplaying the impact of Israel's actions.

He noted that Israel might seek to overstate its effectiveness, while it would also be unwise for Iran to entirely minimize the strikes. “They’re making a miscalculation concerning Iran,” Khamenei said on his website, emphasizing that Israel “has yet to understand the full strength, capability, ingenuity, and resolve of the Iranian people.”

Following the air raids on sites in Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam, Iran reported two soldiers killed and some infrastructure damage. Israel confirmed that its mission objectives were met and that its aircraft returned safely.
