The conflict between Israel and Iran continues for the seventh day in a row. US President Donald Trump is considering the possibility of US entry into the Middle East conflict, while both sides, Iran and Israel, continue air strikes with missiles and drones.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says Tehran will not surrender and warns that any intervention by Washington would result in "irreparable damage" , while Iraq's Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani has also reacted to the situation.
Addressing Trump's threats to assassinate Khamenei, Ali Sistani, the top religious leader of Shiite Muslims in Iraq and around the world, warned that an attack on Iran's state leadership, including their Supreme Leader, could cause the current conflict to plunge the entire region into chaos.
AFP quoted a statement from Sistani, who is an Iranian citizen, saying the decision to target Tehran's "supreme religious and political leadership" would have "grave consequences for the region" .
Sistani warned that this could cause "large-scale chaos that would exacerbate people's suffering and seriously harm the interests of all . "
He urged the international community to "make every effort to end this unjust war and find a peaceful solution" to Iran's nuclear program.
Meanwhile, the British newspaper The Guardian reports that Sistani has the power to mobilize a large portion of Shiite believers in Iraq. (A2 Televizion)
