Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei made the statements in a Sunday meeting with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and his cabinet.
Pointing to the staggering crimes and atrocities committed by the despised Zionist regime, the Leader said: “Although these crimes are carried out with the support of powers such as the US, the path to confronting this situation is not closed. Opposing countries –both Islamic and non-Islamic countries today, but especially Islamic countries – must completely sever their commercial ties with the Zionist regime. They should even cut off political relations as well and isolate the regime.”

He described the Zionist regime as the most isolated and despised regime in the world. “One of the main tenets of Iran's diplomacy must be to urge other governments to first and foremost cut off their commercial relations, and secondly, their political relations with the Zionist regime,” he said.
The remarks come as the occupation regime continues to attack the besieged Gaza Strip in addition to blocking the essential aids that have prompted the UN to officially declare a famine there. The Israeli aggression which started in October 2023, has killed more than 64,000 people in Gaza, nearly half of them women and children.
