Tehran Firm in Backing Palestinians, Iran's Military Chief Tells Hamas Leader
(Tehran Times-Iran) Mohammad Baqeri, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, reaffirmed Tehran's support for the Palestinian cause in their battle against Israel, in a meeting with Ismail Haniyeh, chief of the Hamas political bureau, in Tehran on Friday. "The Palestinian cause has been the centerpiece of Iran's major strategies since the [1979 Islamic] Revolution, and this will undoubtedly continue with full power," Baqeri said. He also said the "unprecedented" Al-Aqsa Storm Operation by Hamas against Israel on Oct. 7 inflicted irreparable defeat on the Tel Aviv regime, shattering the myth of Israel's invincibility and making the Palestinians an overriding issue across the world. He said the Palestinians succeeded in showing the power of Islam to the world, and expressed hope that the Palestinians would achieve final victory in the near future.
