Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, took to X on Wednesday to praise the recently killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, both eliminated by the IDF.
If there hadn’t been great people like Martyr #Nasrallah who combined jihad, wisdom, courage, self-sacrifice, and selflessness and put these to use, the movement would have been one way. But since such people exist, the movement has turned out a different way.

Khamenei stated that without figures like "Martyr Hassan Nasrallah," who embodied jihad, wisdom, courage, and self-sacrifice, the movement would have been one-dimensional.
He also praised Yahya Sinwar, tweeting: "If there hadn’t been people like Martyr #Sinwar who fought to the end, the region’s destiny would have been one way. But since such people exist, it has turned out a different way."
