Iranian officials demanded that the Islamic Republic begin developing intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) in a letter addressed to Iran's Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, the reformist Iranian newspaper Asriran reports.
A total of 85 officials were reported to have penned the letter, which expressed condolences to Khamenei on his father’s death and cast doubt on the trustworthiness of Washington in ceasefire negotiations, asserted that the parliamentarians would “continue to support our military forces and defense industries until the day comes when the range of our missiles reaches the offices of the killers of the deputy of the Imam of the Age (Muhammad al-Mahdi, the twelfth and final Imam) and the martyred Khamenei.
“We believe that to end the cycle of terror by the so-called ‘Al-Epstein,’ who adhere to no moral, human, or international principles, it is not merely an eye for an eye; rather, the enemy must know that it will be a head for an eye.”
