TEHRAN -- The X social media platform has suspended the account of the official website of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
The platform, formerly known as Twitter, suspended the account on Wednesday, with a brief statement appearing on the page that said, “X suspends accounts that violate the X Rules.”
It did not specify what the alleged violation was.
This is not the first time the U.S.-based company has targeted the Leader’s accounts.
Late in October, X suspended a Hebrew-language account of Khamenei.ir a day after it was launched. The account was later restored.
Later, the platform also imposed a one-day ban on the Azeri-language account of the website publishing content on behalf of Ayatollah Khamenei.
The account had attracted more than 43,000 followers, mostly from Muslims based in Azerbaijan.
