❗️Statement by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) on the assassination of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei:

"The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine mourns the passing of the great leader and fighter, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, the guide and leader of the Iranian Revolution, and a group of his comrades, military and political leaders, who were killed in a treacherous criminal assassination carried out by the forces of the Zionist-imperialist alliance.

We in the Popular Front, as we bid farewell to this revolutionary fighter who took up the banner of the revolution from its founder, Khomeini, affirm that his passing represents a loss for the forces of global resistance seeking to break American hegemony and liquidate the Zionist project. The deceased devoted his life to the front lines of resistance against projects of expansion and domination, and worked for three decades to consolidate the Republic's position as a country with a balanced regional presence and a central base of support for national liberation movements, foremost among which was the Palestinian resistance, which found strategic support in his positions during the darkest of times.

The rise of leaders in the fields of confrontation represents a renewed stage in the course of open conflict; whenever treacherous forces attempt to undermine it, the revolution grows stronger, and the blood that has been shed becomes a living memory that drives greater determination to resist all forms of colonial presence and Zionist aggression in our region. The policy of assassinations will not be able to extinguish the will of the peoples, and has always been a driving force and motivation to strengthen resilience and transform loss into a force of resistance against projects of subjugation.

This crime is not the end, but rather a new chapter in a process in which the peoples' awareness of the reality of the conflict is growing and the will to resist and defend sovereignty and dignity is deepening. Iran, with its established institutions and cohesive people, will overcome this loss and is capable of filling any leadership vacuum with competence and authority, preserving its revolutionary approach and principled choices.

The Popular Front, expressing its full solidarity with the Iranian people and their leadership, stresses that strengthening coordination between the forces of liberation and consolidating “unity in the trenches and resistance in various arenas of confrontation” is the most effective way to confront imperialist and Zionist arrogance.

Glory and immortality to the martyrs ... We will surely be victorious.”
