Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has appealed to Muslim states with political ties with Israel to at least cut them for “a limited time”, state media said.
“Some Islamic governments have condemned Israeli crimes in assemblies while some have not. This is unacceptable,” Khamenei said, before reiterating that the main task of Islamic governments should be to cut off Israel from energy and goods.
“Islamic governments should at least cut off political ties to Israel for a limited time,” Khamenei added, reports Reuters.
Khamenei made his latest comments while attending an exhibition showcasing the “latest achievements” of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force, including the Fattah 2, a new version of what is said to be Iran’s first hypersonic missile.
