TEHRAN - Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Ali Khamenei says the resistance of the Palestinians in Gaza will bring Israel to its knees.

In a meeting with Quran reciters on the first day of the fasting month of Ramadan on Tuesday, the Leader also said the Quran has shown the “pinnacle of resistance” in Gaza to the world.

Ayatollah Khamenei also said resistance fighters in Gaza have sent a message saying that “90 percent of our capabilities are intact”.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) in the U.S. revealed on Monday that “Israel probably will face lingering armed resistance from Hamas for years to come.”
