Peace be upon you and God's mercy and blessings.
Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Khamenei and Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Sistani (may God protect them):
This person must make up for the day they broke their fast before sunset, and they are required to pay the expiation for deliberately breaking the fast, as they did so with knowledge of its invalidating nature. For details on the expiation for deliberately breaking the fast, you can refer to Question 35.
May you be successful in all good.
