Khamenei calls for an economic boycott, senior Iranian general threatens Israel with blockade

After the report of the Israeli-affiliated ship that was attacked west of India, Iran's leader Ali Khamenei called on the countries that take part in the international force established to deal with the threats of the Houthis, not to take part in it.

"It is the duty of the Islamic countries to prevent the sending of oil, fuel, and goods to Israel," he noted.

He even attacked the Arab countries that take part in the force "Providing support to the resistance is a duty, and standing by Israel is a crime and treason."

Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi spoke with his Iranian counterpart, in an attempt to remove the threat in the Red Sea.
