In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

I have received with sadness the tragic news about the earthquake in Bushehr province, the casualties that it has inflicted and the damage that it has caused. I pray to God to bestow mercy on the departed, cure the injured and bestow patience on those who survived.

I call on the Leader's representative, the honorable officials in Bushehr province and the officials who are in charge in the capital of the province and other cities in Bushehr, to do their best to save the injured and help those who have suffered a loss.

I hope that our dear people throughout the country will play their part - as they have always done - in decreasing the anguish of those who suffered a loss in this event.

Greetings be upon you and Allah's mercy

Sayyid Ali Khamenei
