‘Violation of all norms’: Putin blasts the US and Israel for strikes and the killing of Khamenei

Russian President Vladimir Putin has strongly condemned the killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, calling the death a “cynical violation of all norms of human morality and international law.” Putin’s remarks came in the wake of joint strikes by the United States and Israel that resulted in Khamenei’s death on Saturday.

Per Fox News, Putin delivered his condemnation in a letter addressed to Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, which the Kremlin made public. “Please accept my deep condolences in connection with the murder of the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Seyed Ali Khamenei, and members of his family,” Putin wrote.
