Iran's supreme leader urges Gulf rulers in written message to confront 'real enemy'

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has issued a written message calling on Gulf rulers and other Muslim nations to unite against a common adversary. The leader characterized divisions among Muslim countries as beneficial to their shared enemies, urging a collective stance to confront the identified threat.

The appeal occurs amid heightened regional instability, marked by recent Iranian strikes on United States military facilities and infrastructure within Gulf states. These actions have intensified the existing diplomatic and security tensions between Tehran and its neighboring countries in the Gulf region.
