Tehran: Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Hosseini Khamenei, has urged Muslim nations to halt oil and food exports to Israel in an attempt to halt the ongoing bombardment of Gaza, according to reports from Iranian state media.
Khamenei also placed blame on the West for the current humanitarian crisis in Gaza, asserting that they have tarnished their reputation in global public opinion.
Speaking about the situation in Gaza, Khamenei praised the resilience of the people, stating, "People of Gaza have mobilised the public’s conscience by their patience. Look at what’s happening in the world.” He highlighted the protests against Israel and the United States in various countries, including the UK, France, Italy, and the US, as evidence of the international outcry against the attacks.
Khamenei emphasized that the responsibility for the plight of Gaza extends beyond the Zionist regime, pointing fingers at the United States, France, and the UK. He criticized these nations, saying, "They have lost their credibility and really there is no remedy for them as they cannot justify Israel’s attack."
As of the latest update, the conflict in Gaza, which began on October 7, has led to the tragic loss of at least 8,525 Palestinian lives due to Israeli attacks.

Bengaluru, Nov 26: A week after a 52-year-old woman was mauled to death by a leopard near Shivagange Hills in Nelamangala taluk, the Forest department has captured two leopards from Kambalu Gollarahatti village, officials said on Tuesday.
A seven-year-old male leopard was captured on Monday, followed by a nine-year-old female leopard on Tuesday from the same area, they said.
Blood and hair samples of the leopards have been collected and will be sent to the National Centre for Biological Sciences. DNA analysis will determine if either of the captured leopards was responsible for the fatal attack, a senior forest official said.
The victim, identified as Kariamma, was killed on November 17 while cutting grass in an agricultural field near her home. She was reportedly dragged into the forest by a leopard, which mauled her to death and consumed parts of her body.
In response, the Forest Department deployed large cages and installed eight pairs of camera traps around the area to track the leopards.
"Camera traps captured footprints of two male leopards and one female leopard. This enabled us to locate and capture the male and female leopards. Our teams are actively searching for the third male leopard whose footprints were recorded," the official added.
Efforts are ongoing to ensure the safety of residents and monitor wildlife in the region.
