Rais wa Urusi, Vladimir Putin, amelaani kuuawa kwa Kiongozi Mkuu wa Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, akikitaja kitendo hicho kuwa ni “mauaji ya kinyama na ya kijanja” yanayokiuka maadili yote ya kibinadamu na sheria za kimataifa.
Putin alitoa salamu za pole kwa Rais wa Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian.
Aidha, Korea Kaskazini imesema mashambulizi ya Israel na Marekani dhidi ya Iran ni 'Uvamizi haramu' na unaokiuka uhuru wa taifa.
Pia, China pia imelaani vikali mauaji ya Khamenei huku ikitoa wito tena wa kusitishwa kwa vitendo vya kijeshi.
Wizara ya mambo ya nje ya nchi hiyo (Beijing) imesema kupitia taarifa yake kuwa mauaji hayo ni "ukiukwaji mkubwa wa mamlaka na usalama wa Iran, ni kukanyaga malengo na misingi ya Mkataba wa Umoja wa Mataifa pamoja na kanuni za msingi za mahusiano ya kimataifa."
"China inapinga kwa dhati na kulaani vikali jambo hili," iliongeza taarifa hiyo, ikitaka kusitishwa mara moja kwa operesheni za kijeshi.
