Iran's Khamenei says enemy 'defeated' in written Nowruz message

Iran's supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, on Friday said the enemies of the Islamic Republic were being defeated in the war against the U.S. and Israel in a written message for the Persian New Year, Nowruz.

"At the moment, due to the particular unity that has been created between you our compatriots -- despite all the differences in religious, intellectual, cultural and political origins -- the enemy has been defeated," said Khamenei, who is yet to appear in public after being named to succeed his father Ali Khamenei who was killed in an airstrike at the a start of the war.
