GAZA (Dispatches) – Islamic Jihad has lauded sacrifices made by late commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, saying the top Iranian icon fully supported the resistance front and foiled American plots in Iraq and Syria.
Khaled al-Batsh, a member of the politburo of Islamic Jihad, addressed a ceremony organized via video link by Yemen’s National Salvation Government in the capital Sanaa on Saturday to commemorate the martyrs of the resistance front, particularly General Soleimani.
“Commander Soleimani, far from sectarianism and any other titles, created an Islamic environment for the Palestinian cause and supported the Palestinian resistance with weapons, planning and development, and thwarted U.S. plans in Iraq and Syria,” Batsh told the gathering.
The Islamic Jihad official called General Soleimani was a “sharp sword to confront the Israeli enemy and a shield to protect the Palestinian people.”
Yemeni Prime Minister Abdulaziz bin Habtoor, the head of the Salvation Government, praised sacrifices of the resistance front and described the event as an “epitome of solidarity and cohesion in the resistance axis.”
“We are in complete harmony in rejecting the Western project and the Zionist project,” Habtoor said, adding that “Martyrs are symbols for us and role models for all free people at the level of the resistance axis in Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen.”
Jassim al-Muhammad Ali, a member of the resistance in the Arabian Peninsula, also said, “We stand in front of great symbols who sacrificed blood as sacrifices to preserve the dignity of the nation.”
Referring to the resistance front’s martyrs, he stressed that “these great symbols sought through their struggle to show revolutionary Islam and promote the unification of nations.”
