Iranian Speaker Ghalibaf Claims US and Israel Failed in Anti-Iran Campaign
Summary
Iranian Speaker Masoud Pezeshkian (referred to as Ghalibaf in source, likely referring to Ebrahim Raisi's successor or a specific political figure context, but IRNA is state media) issued a statement asserting that the United States and Israel have failed to achieve their strategic objectives in their campaign against Iran.

"Both events represent high-level Iranian political and military rhetoric aimed at signaling defiance and resilience against US and Israel during a period of heightened tension (Khamenei's funeral). The new event reinforces the narrative of failure for adversaries, complementing the threat of retaliation in event 9."
"The IRGC's warning against miscalculation (Event 10) and the Speaker's claim of US/Israeli failure (New Event) are part of a coordinated domestic and regional messaging campaign to project strength and deter further aggression following the reported strikes on the Supreme Leader."
"The funeral proceedings and the context of reported US-Israeli strikes (Event 13) created the immediate political environment that necessitated the Speaker's statement. The claim of adversary failure is a direct rhetorical response to the events surrounding the Supreme Leader's death and the subsequent national mourning."
"Event 5 involves Iranian Speaker Ghalibaf claiming US and Israel failed in their anti-Iran campaign. The new event involves President Pezeshkian vowing to pursue US-Israeli actions. Both are part of a coordinated domestic political narrative asserting Iranian resilience and condemning adversaries following the recent escalation."
