Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s new Hebrew-language page has been blocked by Elon Musk’s platform for violating its rules
Elon Musk’s X platform (formerly Twitter) has suspended the Hebrew-language account of Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei a day after it was launched.
Khamenei’s new page, which was created on Saturday, became inaccessible on Sunday.
“Account suspended. X suspends accounts which violate the X Rules,” a message by the platform read. X has not yet provided any further explanations for its move.
The ban came just hours after a message was posted on the page, reading: “The Zionist regime [Iran] made a mistake. It erred in its calculations on Iran. We will cause it to understand what kind of strength, ability, initiative, and will the Iranian nation has.”
In his post, Khamenei was apparently referring to the IDF attack on Iran early on Saturday. West Jerusalem said that it targeted some 20 military sites in the country in retaliation for Tehran’s missile strike on Israel earlier this month. The Islamic Republic has confirmed that the bombardment took place, but insisted that it caused only “limited damage.”
On October 1, Iran fired nearly 200 ballistic missiles at Israel, saying that it was acting in response to the killing of the Hamas and Hezbollah leaders as well as an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) general.
Khamenei’s English-language account on X, which has 1.3 million followers, remains operational. In one of his most recent posts on the page, the Iranian supreme leader said “we must make the Zionists [the Israelis] understand the power of Iranian people.”
In another message, he blamed the UN and other international bodies for “not doing their duty… of confronting” Israel, which in addition to targeting Iran is also involved in military operations in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.
