Tehran, Oct 25 (IANS): Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has emphasised that the US is a definite accomplice in the crimes committed by the Zionist regime in Gaza, a media report said.

Khamenei made the remarks on Wednesday, saying: “The presence of the heads of oppressive and villain states in the occupied territories shows their concern about the disintegration of the Zionist regime," referring to Western leaders' recent trips, Mehr News reported.

Stressing that victory is definitely for Palestine,Khamenei said Islamic states should not be passive in the face of criminals.

In the future the world will belong to the Palestinians, not the the Zionist regime, he added, Mehr News reported.

The efforts, oppression, and crimes of the Zionists are futile and they will not lead anywhere, Khamenei stressed.

Khamenei also said that Gaza is now “the scene of innocence on one hand and strength on the other hand".

He described as “decisive” and “irreparable” the blow dealt to the usurping entity by Palestinian fighters in their October 7 raid, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm.

“Yes, the people of Gaza are really oppressed, and this ruthless and bloodthirsty enemy, the usurping terrorist regime, knows no boundaries to crimes. It kills a thousand people in one bombardment,” he said, Mehr News reported.

He added, “In this case, the United States is a definite accomplice of the criminals. That is, the US hands have been polluted up to the arms with the blood of the oppressed, the children, the patients, the women, etc. In fact, [the US] is somehow managing the crimes being committed in Gaza," Mehr News reported.
