Tehran: Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is to deliver a televised speech "in a few minutes", the official IRNA news agency reported, on day six of an unprecedented air war with Israel.

Khamenei, in power since 1989 and the final arbiter of all matters of state in Iran, has made few public pronouncements since Israel launched its assault on Friday.
