I don't see any limits to our defense of ourselves.

There are no restrictions or boundaries in front of us in defending ourselves.

Regime change is an impossible mission. The absance or death of a leader does not mean the system collapses.

State institutions remain intact.

A new Supreme Leader could be elected within a day or two. Things are going according to plan in the country and everything is in line with the constitution.

Our relations with the countries on the other side of the Gulf are good, and they have no problems with us.

We do not attack our neighbors in the Gulf countries, but we attack the American presence in these countries.

Our military units are currently operating independently and in isolation, following previously issued general directives.

I am in constant contact with my counterparts in the region and I have explained the situation.

I know that some of them are not happy and some are angry.

We know that the Gulf countries are angry with our attacks, but they should understand that this is a war that was imposed on us.

This war is a choice of America and Israel, and we must put pressure on them. I hope our neighbors will convey their discontent to them.

We have no intention of closing the Strait of Hormuz at the moment, and there are no plans to do anything that would disrupt navigation there at this stage.

We don't know for sure how the death of Khamenei will affect Iran's capabilities and military responses.

Maybe in one or two days, the Assembly of Experts will elect a new leader for the country.

An Iranian Jamaran-class corvette was struck by U.S. forces during the start of Operation Epic Fury.

The ship is currently sinking to the bottom of the Gulf of Oman at a Chah Bahar pier.

As the President said, members of Iran’s armed forces, IRGC and police “must lay down your weapons.” Abandon ship.
