Media reports of Iran's Leader calling meeting in wake of Beirut bombings false: Sources tell Press TV
The media reports claiming that Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has called an emergency meeting of the Supreme National Security Council in the wake of latest Israeli bombings in Beirut are not true.
Sources told Press TV that there is no truth to these media reports and no such meeting has taken place.
They made the remarks after The New York Times published a report alleging that the Leader had called such a meeting.
Earlier in the day, the Israeli regime targeted residential neighborhoods in the Haret Hreik area in the Lebanese capital’s southern suburbs with airstrikes.
The aftermath witnessed circulation of rumors across the social media suggesting that the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah’s Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was targeted during the Israeli airstrikes.
Hezbollah security sources have, however, informed Press TV that the resistance leader was in a secure location and had not been harmed by the attacks.
The attacks came as part of the regime’s escalation against Lebanon that has been targeting the country since October 7, when Tel Aviv launched a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
