Iran will help oppressed people in the region as much as it can, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said earlier today, in a thinly veiled threat against regional rival Saudi Arabia.
“Yemen, Bahrain and Palestine are oppressed, and we protect oppressed people as much as we can,” state news agency IRNA quoted Khamenei as saying in an address to Iranian leaders and diplomats from the Islamic world.
The Ayatollah also said that insecurity in the Gulf will affect all neighbouring countries.
