TEHRAN- Ali Akbar Velayati, advisor to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution in international affairs, has said that the international community is witnessing the crimes of the Zionist regime against the people of Gaza, and wise consciences have awakened in the fight against the cancerous tumor.

In a meeting with the Palestinian thinker and author Munir Shafiq on Sunday, he said that it must be known that the Zionist regime is doomed, and the brave Palestinian nation will be victorious.

During the meeting, they discussed regional developments and the Gaza war.

In this meeting, Velayati welcomed Munir Shafiq’s efforts of over three decades in defending the rights of the oppressed people of Palestine and fighting against the Zionist regime.

The Leader’s aide also congratulated the recent victories of the resistance and the people of Gaza, emphasizing that the people of Gaza and Palestine have proven to the world that victory over injustice is possible with perseverance and resistance.

He noted that “Today, the world witnessed the atrocities and injustices of the Zionist regime against the defenseless people of Gaza, and a wave of awakening in the wise consciences emerged in the fight against this cancerous tumor.”

“This is evident in the gradual decline of the regime and the protests of American and European students, as well as freedom fighters around the world, against the actions and crimes of the ruthless Zionist regime.”

Velayati went on to add that the Zionist regime is doomed, and the brave Palestinian nation will be victorious.

Shafiq, expressing his pleasure at meeting with Velayati, thanked the Islamic Republic of Iran for its unwavering support for the aspirations of Palestine.

The Palestinian author stated that “today, we are witnessing the formation of a new order in the world, and we must play our role more prominently in this new order. Iran will have an important role in the new order.”

He continued by saying that Iran has always been at the forefront of defending Palestine, and Imam Khomeini was the first person to seriously establish the defense of Palestine and the fight against the Zionist regime in the Islamic world. After him, Ayatollah Khamenei continued his path in supporting the aspirations of Palestine, Al-Quds, and fighting against the Zionist regime.

Shafiq also stated that “we are now entering a new phase where, on one side, the great operation of the Al-Aqsa Storm and, on the other side, the Operation True Promise have shattered the oppressive plans of the Zionist regime and its Western supporters.” 

“The Islamic world, with the sacrifice of the Palestinians and the support of major and influential countries in the region, under the leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the honorable measures of the Leader, has created a new balance that has defeated the dominance of the colonial powers. The final victory will undoubtedly be with the Palestinians, with the courageous and historic support of the Resistance Front,” he stressed. 

Shafiq also said that the world is no longer a place where America and France can rule; today, the world has changed, America has lost its power and dominance and is severely weakened.

He expressed that “such a conflict has proven that the Palestinians are strong, and the Palestinian people are ready to sacrifice everything. A strong and united front has emerged, and Iran plays a fundamental role in it.”

The Iranian Army’s Commander-in-Chief, Major General Abdul Rahim Mousavi, stated on Thursday that operations Al-Aqsa Storm and True Promise hastened the downfall of the Zionist entity oppressing and harming children.

General Mousavi emphasized that the two operations have expedited the demise of the Zionist entity. He expressed confidence that the world will soon be free from the negative impact of this malignant presence.

“The Leader of the Islamic Revolution said in the past that Israel will not see the next 25 years, the operations of Al-Aqsa Storm and True Promise have accelerated the process of destroying the Zionist regime, and the world will soon be saved from the harm of this cancerous tumor,” he explained.

Major General Mousavi highlighted the significant impact of these operations, noting that they have reshaped global dynamics. He emphasized that the army is committed to its duties, remaining vigilant against threats and preparing for future challenges.
