According to the Hebrew news agency Tasnim, nearly all Hebrew-language media outlets across various spectrums reported on the Supreme Leader’s speech, with the phrase ‘the possibility of sinking an American aircraft carrier’ dominating their headlines.
Yedioth Ahronoth published a report regarding the second round of negotiations held in Geneva, referencing the Supreme Leader’s remarks. It quoted him stating that the words of the U.S. President indicate a desire for dominance over the Iranian nation, but the Iranian people know how to respond. He asserted that they would not extend a hand of friendship to the corrupt leaders currently in power in the United States.
In another part of the report, Yedioth Ahronoth noted that the Iranian leader remarked on the ongoing U.S. deployment of an aircraft carrier towards Iran. He cautioned that while these are indeed dangerous tools, even more perilous is the weapon capable of sinking them.The Iranian leader warned Trump against any form of aggression, stating that the U.S. military would face severe repercussions, as even the strongest army in the world can endure devastating blows.
The Hebrew news outlet JDN also reported on the Iranian leader’s strong response to Trump’s threats, warning him about targeting American aircraft carriers. The report emphasized that after 47 years, the Islamic Republic has not been dismantled, nor will it be in the future. This statement was viewed as a direct response to Trump’s provocations.
Furthermore, the report highlighted the Supreme Leader’s comments regarding the recent unrest, expressing deep sorrow over the casualties. He categorized the deceased into three groups: Iranian security forces killed while suppressing riots, innocent civilians who were killed without participating in protests, and individuals who, due to naivety and inexperience, were ‘misguided and destroyed’ after the riots.The news outlet Kikar began its report with the headline, ‘We will send the aircraft carrier to the depths of the sea,’ stating that the Iranian leader depicted the USS Gerald Ford as a coffin in the deep sea, unveiling a dangerous weapon capable of sinking it. The report also referenced a post from the leader’s account on X, noting that in today’s psychological warfare, the American aircraft carrier symbolizes a potential defeat for the U.S.
Channel 14 of the Israeli regime’s television distinguished the issue of Trump’s moral corruption and the leadership structure of the U.S., reporting that the Iranian leader directly told Trump, ‘Corrupt leader, your conspiracy has failed.’
The newspaper Makor Rishon utilized the headline ‘The Iranian Leader Declares, We Will Sink the American Aircraft Carrier,’ quoting him as saying that while the Americans claim to have deployed a warship to the region, it is indeed a dangerous vessel, yet even more dangerous is the weapon that will send it to the depths of the sea. The strongest army in the world may receive a blow so devastating that it cannot recover from it.The news outlet i24 echoed a similar sentiment in its report stating that Ayatollah Khamenei responded to Trump by asserting that the weapon capable of sinking the aircraft carrier is more dangerous than the carrier itself. The Iranian leader emphasized that the U.S. is incapable of dismantling the Islamic Republic.
The newspaper Maariv highlighted that with this speech the Iranian leader directly threatened the U.S. aircraft carrier network.
