Iran's Khamenei says enemy 'defeated' in Nowruz message amid war with US and Israel

Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, praised citizens' resilience in a written statement read on television for Nowruz. He asserted that U.S. and Israeli attacks, aimed at overthrowing the government by targeting leaders, have failed. Khamenei, who has not appeared publicly since his father's death on the war's first day, claimed Iranian defenses delivered a bewildering blow to the enemy.
