Khamenei appeared before the public for the first time since the war

Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who is under threat from the US and Israel, attended the Ashura ceremony for the first time in public after the war with Israel.

Iranian leader Khamenei, who did not attend the Muharram mourning ceremonies held at his residence on Palestine Street for the previous three nights, attended the Ashura ceremony held tonight.

"THE BLOOD IN OUR VEINS IS A GIFT TO OUR GUIDE"

In the images shared on the Iranian leader's social media account, those present at the Imam Khomeini Mosque for the mourning ceremony were seen showing their love for him by chanting slogans such as "The blood in our veins is a gift to our Guide" as Khamenei entered the hall.

HE WAS THREATENED WITH DEATH DURING THE WAR

US President Donald Trump and the Tel Aviv administration threatened to kill Iranian leader Khamenei during the 12-day war between Iran and Israel.

Khamenei had made a speech to the nation while the attacks were ongoing. In a speech after the ceasefire, Khamenei said that the US joined the attacks on Iran in order to save Tel Aviv, which was worn down by Iran's counter-attacks.

The annual Muharram ceremonies held in Iran at Khamenei's residence were held for the first time without Khamenei's participation. Khamenei had not attended the mourning ceremonies for the previous three nights.
