BBC Persia just released a statement by Khamenei, who said in part:

The security of the nation and the will of the faithful people of the Islamic Republic will not bend under pressure. ... The candidates (referring to Mousavi and Karroubi) must take into account that their regional actions/behaviors have an effect at the national level.

NIAC adds:

It seems that his intention here is to warn Mousavi and Karroubi that their actions in Tehran are disrupting the whole security structure of the establishment.
