“The enemies imagine that after the developments in Syria, the uprising is already over. They are greatly mistaken,” he wrote.
Last week, Khamenei addressed the situation in Syria in a Hebrew post, noting, “The young Syrians will liberate the territories occupied by the Zionist entity.”
האויבים מדמיינים שאחרי ההתפתחויות בסוריה, ההתקוממות כבר נגמרה. הם טועים בגדול.

Blaming Israel for the developments in Syria
Following the toppling of former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad’s regime by Syrian rebel factions earlier in December, Iran lost much of its influence in the region. It has indicated its interest in working with the new government in Damascus.
The Islamic Republic has blamed both Israel and the US for the fall of the Syrian regime.
In October, Khamenei launched his Hebrew X account, which was subsequently suspended temporarily, with the social media platform citing a violation of rules.
