Israeli settlers uproot ancient olive trees in West Bank

Iranian state media has confirmed that Ali Shamkhani, senior adviser to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, is alive and recovering after surviving a brutal Israeli airstrike.
Following the cowardly Israeli assault on Iranian soil, Israeli media and intelligence sources falsely claimed that Shamkhani had been martyred. These fabrications were swiftly dismantled by official Iranian outlets, which confirmed that while the senior strategist sustained injuries, he is now in stable condition.
In a defiant message to the Iranian people, Shamkhani declared, “I am alive and ready to sacrifice my life for Iran,” reaffirming his unwavering dedication to the Islamic Republic and the resistance front.
The Israeli regime’s aggression, backed by U.S. complicity, has resulted in the deaths of over 250 Iranians, including revered military commanders and scientific experts, according to official sources. These acts of terror are seen as part of a wider campaign to destabilize the Islamic Republic and undermine regional resistance.
The Zionist regime’s desperate disinformation campaign surrounding Shamkhani’s status is viewed by analysts as an attempt to salvage psychological victories after failing to break Iran’s strategic depth and deterrent power.
Despite the losses, the Islamic Republic remains resilient. The survival of figures like Shamkhani is emblematic of Iran’s enduring strength in the face of foreign aggression and misinformation. (ILKHA)
