IRGC General Affirms Iran’s Support for Resistance

TEHRAN – Brigadier General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the Aerospace Division of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), said on Tuesday that the Palestinian resistance will achieve “definite” victory in the face of the Zionist regime in Gaza. 
General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh said, “Be certain that you will change the course of the regional and global history.”
Hajizadeh vowed that the Islamic Republic would continue to spare no effort to support the resistance.
He made the remarks in a meeting with family members of some of the Palestinians, who had been martyred as a result of Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip.
Hajizadeh also pointed to the Zionist regime’s October-present genocidal war against the coastal sliver, asserting how “poignant” it was for both the officials and the people inside the Islamic Republic to bear witness to such atrocities.
The commander also said Iran is capable of taking fresh direct military action against the Israeli regime.
“We are hopeful of the arrival of the opportunity for [conducting] Operation True Promise 2,” Hajizadeh stated.
In a multi-pronged attack, dubbed Operation True Promise, Iran launched hundreds of drones and missiles at the occupied territories late on April 13 in response to deadly aggression by the Israeli regime against the Iranian diplomatic facilities in the Syrian capital earlier that month.
The Israeli airstrikes on Iran’s embassy compound in Damascus had killed two commanders of the Quds Force of the IRGC, Brigadier General Muhammad Reza Zahedi and General Muhammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, as well as five of their accompanying officers.
Hajizadeh noted that the Corps fired as many as “300 missiles” against Israeli targets during the operation.
On Tuesday, the Iranian people welcomed families of Palestinian martyrs of the October 7 operation against the Zionist regime, who have managed to escape the besieged Gaza Strip and enter Iran through regional countries.
People in Tehran flocked to Palestine Square to welcome 65 families of the martyrs of the al-Aqsa Storm operation.
They declared their solidarity and support for the Palestinian people, and paid tribute to their martyrs.
The wife of Hussein Amir-Abdollahian, the late Iranian foreign minister who was martyred in a helicopter crash along president Ebrahim Raisi in May, addressed the gathering.
“Greetings and salutations to the dear sisters and brothers who have sent your children to the eternal abode from under the rubble and ruins of Gaza with a steadfast stature,” she said.
“Welcome to Iran, the motherland of the Islamic world.”
