Iranian media across the political spectrum are urgently reporting that an imminent message from Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, will be published shortly.
Iranian media and Telegram channels across the political spectrum are urgently broadcasting that Dr. Ali Larijani, identified as the Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council, is about to release a public statement. A post by حامیان پزشکیان, a channel aligned with supporters of President Masoud Pezeshkian, announced: "A message from Dr. Ali Larijani, Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of the country, will be published in a few minutes." The identical update was also shared by the کانال اخبار سپاه پاسداران 🏴, a channel affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
The urgency of the announcement was amplified by various conflict-tracking and general news channels. The prominent news aggregator آخرین خبر published the exact notification, a report similarly circulated by the Saudi-aligned العربیه فارسی (Al Arabiya Farsi). Additionally, the conflict-focused channel اخبارفوری خبرفوری جنگ امریکا فوری labeled the update as "‼️🔴 Urgent," specifying that the news originated directly from Larijani's official Telegram account.
The highly anticipated message arrives amid intense regional conflict and severe domestic crises. Over the past 24 hours, Iran has faced the shutdown of major banking systems and sweeping property confiscations by the judiciary. Militarily, the country has absorbed a wave of over 200 IDF airstrikes on military and air defense targets, as well as destructive US CENTCOM operations against Kharg Island, while Iran launched massive retaliatory strikes on Tel Aviv and US interests across the region. Highlighting a polarized domestic media landscape amid these events, the channel خبرفوری ࡆ اخبارفوری مذاکره ࡆ جنگ فوری relayed the announcement of the impending address while appending a laughing emoji (😂), displaying a mocking or skeptical editorial posture toward the official's forthcoming message.
The channels uniformly report an impending announcement from Larijani's official Telegram channel, employing the exact same phrasing. One channel (NE_WG) prepended a laughing emoji to the news, conveying an editorial stance of mockery or skepticism. Al Arabiya Farsi's inclusion demonstrates that foreign-based opposition/adversary media are also monitoring the impending address closely.
