Iran will always remain supportive of resistance: Foreign Ministry
Iran's Foreign Ministry has reasserted the Islamic Republic's unwavering support for the regional resistance axis amid the Israeli regime's ongoing hugely deadly war against the Palestinian territory of the Gaza Strip.
"The Islamic Republic has always been and will always be supportive of the resistance and against the occupation," spokesman Nasser Kan'ani said on Sunday.
Tehran, he added, would also continue to remain in favor of "the oppressed and resistant people of Palestine's obvious and natural rights against the bogus and usurping Israeli regime."
The comments came after the Israeli regime called up an unprecedented 300,000 reservists, declaring a "long" war on Gaza in response to Operation al-Aqsa Storm. The operation was launched by the Gaza-based Palestinian resistance movements last Saturday in response to the occupying regime's decades-long campaign of bloodshed and destruction against Palestinians.
As many as 2,670 people have been so far killed and nearly 10,000 others injured since the regime launched its bloody aggression against the coastal territory.
Earlier on Sunday, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian warned that the Islamic Republic would not be a bystander if the occupying regime pressed ahead with its savagery against the Palestinian people.
Speaking to the Qatar-based Al Jazeera network, the top diplomat said, “If the Zionist entity decides to enter Gaza, the resistance leaders will turn it into a cemetery for its soldiers.”
Continuation of the Israeli aggression against Gaza would expand the war fronts across the whole region, he added.
