“The retaliation we have in mind is not limited only to the martyrdom of the great leader of the revolution [Ali Khamenei]; rather, every member of the nation who is martyred by the enemy constitutes a separate case in the file of revenge.”

A follow-up threat came on April 1 when a statement said to have come from Khamenei was reported to have vowed to support anti-American and anti-Israel terrorist cells in the Middle East.

“I firmly declare that the consistent policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in continuing the path of the late Imam and martyred leader, is based on continuing to support the resistance against the Zionist-American enemy,” said the statement claiming to be by Khamenei.
