Twitter temporary suspend Iran Leader account

The Twitter account of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei's official website, Khamenei.ir has been temporarily suspended just hours after Iran conducted a retaliatory missile strike against two US military bases in Iraq.

Iran Press/Iran news: On Wednesday hours after Iranian missiles were fired in retaliation for America's assassination of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, and amid the first public speech by the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei after the martyrdom of the top IRGC General, the official Khamenei.ir account on Twitter was temporarily suspended.

Also, in the past week, Instagram, the Facebook-owned photo-sharing app, has deleted accounts and posts on the Iranian Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, who was assassinated on 3 January in a US drone strike in Baghdad airport.

“In an undemocratic and scandalous move, Instagram has removed the voice of the innocence of nation – related to the assassination of General Qassem Soleimani,” Iranian Government Spokesman Ali Rabiei regretted in a post on his Twitter account on Monday.

This comes as terrorists are free to make their voices heard on Instagram, he added.

His comments came after many Iranian people, officials, celebrities and athletes shared posts about the assassination of Lieutenant General Soleimani, but Instagram deleted all such posts. 101/205/211
