US Defeat in 12-Day War Despite Military Superiority

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei stated that the United States endured significant losses in a 12-day confrontation with Iran, despite its advanced weaponry and vast military resources.

Speaking during a public address, Khamenei asserted that Iran’s steadfastness and strategic defense forced the US military to acknowledge failure in the face of sustained resistance. He praised the Iranian armed forces and people for displaying unity, courage, and faith in the nation’s defense.

“The Americans, equipped with all their modern military systems and vast power, were defeated within only 12 days,” the Leader remarked.

He emphasized that the conflict revealed how resilience, moral strength, and reliance on divine guidance can triumph over superior technology and numerical advantage. Khamenei further noted that this recent battle underscores a broader geopolitical reality: the decline of US influence in the region and the fortification of the Axis of Resistance.

“What defeated the enemy was not weaponry but willpower, faith, and the justice of our cause,” he added.

The Iranian leader also urged regional nations to rely on internal capabilities rather than external powers, asserting that foreign intervention often results in instability rather than security.

Khamenei concluded by stating that Iran’s military readiness and ideological commitment ensure its continued defense against any aggression, emphasizing that the war served as a lesson for all who underestimate Iran’s resolve.

Author Summary: Ayatollah Khamenei declared that Iran’s willpower and unity overcame US military strength during a 12-day war, marking a symbolic setback for Washington’s regional dominance.
