Kashmir chief cleric Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and J&K Peoples Conference (JKPC) leader Imran Reza Ansari on Wednesday (March 18, 2026) condemned the killing of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council secretary Ali Larijani in an attack by Israel.

“I condemn the targeted killing of secretary Ali Larijani by the rogue state of Israel.

The resilience of the people of Iran and their leadership reflects the spirit of a true Muslim nation — courageous, steadfast, and with resolute faith in Almighty Allah — adding that such people deserve to lead,” the Mirwaiz said.

Mr.

Ansari, also a Shia cleric who heads the All J&K Shia Association (AJKSA), said, “With deep sorrow and heavy hearts, we mourn the martyrdom of Larijani, His loss is not just Iran’s loss, but a wound felt across the entire Muslim world.”
He also condemned the “continued aggression and brutality of Israel-U.S.” “Such cowardly acts will never break the spirit of resistance, but only strengthen the resolve of those who stand against injustice,” he added.
