TEHRAN (Iran News) “Some constantly say that the Islamic Republic has lost its proxy forces in the region. This is yet another incorrect statement. The Islamic Republic does not have proxy forces,” Ayatollah Khamenei said in a meeting with a group of elegists and eulogists on Sunday on the birth anniversary of Hazrat Fatemeh Zahra (SA), the daughter of the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).

The Supreme Leader spoke about the situation in Syria, expressing optimism about the emergence of a “strong and dignified” movement in the country despite the ongoing challenges.

“I predict that a powerful and honorable group will rise in Syria as well. A young Syrian has nothing to lose — his university is unsafe, his school is unsafe, his home is unsafe, his street is unsafe, his entire life is unsafe. What is he supposed to do?”
