Hawzah News Agency- Senior Iraqi cleric Ayatollah Seyyed Mohammad Taqi Modarresi, in his speech in his office in Karbala, condemned the insults and media attacks of the Zionist usurper regime against the highest religious authority of Iraq, showing the face of the Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Sistani as one of the targets of Zionist regime’s assassination.

He invited all believers and Muslims to express their position in condemning and denouncing this insult, in different ways and at all levels.

Ayatollah Modarresi further stressed that this is an insult and violation of the entire Ummah and this matter should not be overlooked easily, since silence in the face of these attacks will be a prelude for the enemy to do worse.

He pointed out,” One of the duties of the Muslim Ummah today is to defend their holy places, scholars and leaders against any attack and insult from the enemies of Islam and Muslims.”
