A nation united in defense of Islamic Iran This movement of the people forced Israel, even though the enemy is armed with advanced weapons, to regret its aggression. It did not take long until a chain of diverse ethnic groups from among the Iranian nation, from north to south and east to west, united in the defense of Iran's Islamic borders. Less than a year later, by the grace of God and the instruction of the Imam of the nation, the siege of Abadan was finally broken. Imam Seyed Mujtaba Khamenei October 31, 2026.
