IRGC Vows Support for Gaza, Lebanon
TEHRAN – Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami reaffirmed Iran’s unwavering support for the people of Gaza and Lebanon in the struggle against the Zionist regime.
The IRGC commander on Tuesday visited a number of people who have been hospitalized in Iran’s northeastern city of Mashhad after sustaining injuries in the recent Israeli strikes on Lebanon.
During the visit, Major General Salami underlined that Islamic Iran will stand by the oppressed nations of Gaza and Lebanon.
He also lauded the high morale of the injured Lebanese individuals.
Almighty God always assists the sincere combatants of Hezbollah, the IRGC chief stated.
He noted that God’s will has ordained that victory belongs to the front of Islam, expressing hope that the free nations of the world will celebrate triumph in the not-too-distant future.
The injured Lebanese also praised Iran for its hospitality, expressing gratitude to the Iranian health personnel for providing treatment and supporting Hezbollah forces in difficulties.
Meanwhile, Defense Ministry Spokesman Brigadier General Reza Talainik said that Israeli assassination of Secretary General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah will make the Resistance Front stronger.
The criminal Zionist regime should know that martyrdom of former secretary general of Hezbollah Resistance Movement will make the Resistance Front stronger and also make their determination to destroy the child-killing Zionist regime stronger than ever.
Speaking in a local ceremony held in Robat Karim in the suburb of Tehran, the Strategic Planning deputy Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics Support went on to say that the culture of jihad and martyrdom has currently been institutionalized in the country and this valuable culture set up School of former IRGC Quds Force Commander Lt. General Martyr Qassem Soleimani which is inspiration of the Resistance Front.
The combatants during the eight years of the Sacred Defense created the security in the country and safeguarded the independence, Talainik emphasized.
The combatants and esteemed martyrs of the Islamic Revolution during the eight years of the Sacred Defense (Iraqi imposed war against Iran in 1980-1988) managed to turn the imposed war into a Sacred Defense and defeat the enemy, the spokesman of the Ministry of Defense added.
