Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a direct warning to Tehran during Khamenei’s funeral, declaring that any Iranian leader who seeks to advance a plan to destroy Israel will be eliminated. He said chants of “Death to Trump” during the funeral exposed the true nature of the ayatollah regime, adding that Israel remains prepared to defend itself against any threat.

Katz mentioned what led to the bitter fate of the former supreme leader: “Ayatollah Khamenei, whose funeral is now taking place, was eliminated by Israel because he initiated and led the plan to destroy Israel in Iran and the region. The destroyer was destroyed.”

The Defense Minister described the absurdity of the funeral against the backdrop of negotiations with America: “The chants of ‘Death to Trump’ during the funeral are a disgrace and indicate the true nature of the ayatollahs’ regime, beyond the onslaught of suits and smiles.”
