In a strong denunciation, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, a major religious authority in Iraq, has spoken out against the recent military actions targeting Iran. Al-Sistani called the aggression illegal under international law, as it was undertaken without United Nations sanction.
Based in Najaf, the Iran-born cleric holds significant influence across the Shiite Muslim world. His warning highlighted potential widespread chaos and enduring unrest that such warfare could instigate, not only affecting people in the region but also disturbing global interests.
