Iran has hoisted the red flag of vengeance over the dome of the Jamkaran mosque following the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. The red flag, a notorious symbol in Iranian culture, represents the blood of martyrs and calls for retribution and punishment.
“It is our duty to take revenge,” declared Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, earlier today.
The last time this ominous flag was raised, it signaled a prelude to Iran’s missile and drone attacks against Israel in April of this year, as reported by Kashmir Observer.
It is worth noting that Hamas’ political leader, Ismail Haniyeh, was killed earlier today in Tehran. The assassination reportedly occurred just hours after he attended the inauguration of Iran’s new president, Masoud Pezeshkian.
This move by Iran, invoking symbols of violence and revenge, serves as yet another clear signal of its commitment to promoting terror and unrest in the region. The regime continues to deepen its role as a destabilizing force, using the blood of its so-called martyrs to justify further aggression. The international community must remain vigilant against Iran’s ongoing provocations and the dangerous messages they are sending to the world.
