Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, is set to lead the Friday prayers in Tehran this week, with a sermon anticipated to outline Iran’s approach toward Israel, as reported by New York Times journalist Farnaz Fassihi. Fassihi emphasizes that Khamenei typically assumes this role only during significant events.
Ayatollah Khamenei will lead the Friday prayer in Tehran this week and deliver a sermon that is expected to set the tone for Iran’s strategy against Israel and retaliation, He only does this under extraordinary circumstances, the last time was 2020 after killing Gen. Sulaimani.
