An Indian-origin woman serving in the US Army has criticised protests in India supporting Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei after his death in US-Israel strikes. In an Instagram video, Shilpa Chaudhary questioned how demonstrations in India would help protesters and warned they could damage the country’s global reputation. She said she opposed radicalism and urged people to think about how their actions are perceived internationally. Chaudhary also claimed many Iranians were celebrating Khamenei’s death, arguing that such reactions reflect public dissatisfaction with his rule. Her comments come amid rising tensions in the Middle East following the killing of Khamenei and subsequent Iranian retaliation against US and Israeli targets across the region.
