Israel lost not just war against Hamas, but future forever: Iran’s FM spokesman

The spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry has echoed recent remarks by a former Israeli military commander who admitted that the regime has lost its genocidal war against the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas in Gaza, stressing that the Zionists also wasted away their future forever.

“Not only did the Zionist regime lose the war in the Gaza Strip, but also the future forever. The regime will have no place in the world’s public opinion,” Nasser Kan’ani made the remarks in a post published on X social media platform, formerly known as Twitter, on Monday.

“The fake [Tel Aviv] regime has killed 31,000 people, including 22 thousand women and children, in the Gaza Strip within 5 months. The Palestinian issue has however flourished more after the death of every Palestinian civilian, and elevated its place in the world public opinion more than before.”

Kan’ani noted that Israel and its allies should know they are not simply facing off Hamas, but rather an ancient, noble and established nation called Palestine.

“There’s no doubt that future belongs to Palestine, and the Israeli regime will fall into never-ending shame and disgrace,” the spokesman for the Iranian foreign ministry said.

Yitzhak Brick, a former ombudsman major general, wrote in an article in the Hebrew-language Maariv newspaper on Sunday that Israel has lost its war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

“You can’t lie to many people for a long time,” he said, adding, “What is happening in the Gaza Strip and against Hezbollah in Lebanon will blow up in our faces sooner or later.”

A former Israeli military commander has confessed that the occupying regime has lost its months-long war against the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Brick also stressed that the Israeli military “is not prepared for a regional war, which will be thousands of times more difficult and serious than the war in the Gaza Strip.”

The former Israeli military commander also criticized Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi, saying he is “detached” from reality.

‘Support for Israel amounts to brazen violation of human rights’

Separately, Kan’ani sharply criticized the so-called Western advocates of human rights for behaving like dictators on the international stage, describing their political, military and financial support for Israel as a flagrant violation of human rights.

The senior Iranian diplomat, in a social media post, slammed the political, military and financial support for the usurping regime.

“Providing political, economic, military, financial, legal, and international backing to the Zionist regime, notwithstanding its illegitimate and terrorist identity and accusations of war crimes and genocide, stands as a violation of human rights and international humanitarian law. This stands as the epitome of the most egregious violation of human rights and represents undemocratic and dictatorial conduct within international relations,” he said.

The Iranian diplomat underscored that the dictators of the international stage cannot present themselves as exemplars of democracy, champions of human rights, protectors and advocates of international peace and security, and lecture others.

“The conduct of this group of claimant countries vis-à-vis six months of unequal war against the Gaza Strip, resulting in over 31 thousand civilian casualties due to the Zionist regime’s genocide, starkly illustrates the extent to which these professed ideals align with their slogans.

“As global public opinion is outraged over the unprecedented crimes committed by the Zionists in Gaza and calls for deterrent measures to halt these crimes and genocide further, the very usual claimants and false flag-bearers of championing security, world peace, human rights, and peremptory international laws and regulations have thus far thwarted any legal or executive decisions against this regime within the world’s most significant security authority,” Kan’ani noted.

Israel ‘deliberately’ blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza, Oxfam says

A global anti-poverty charity says Israel is “deliberately” blocking humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip in violation of international humanitarian law.

Since the start of Israel’s genocidal war following Operation al-Aqsa Storm by Gaza-based resistance movements on October 7, 2023, at least 31,645 Palestinians, including many women and children, have lost their lives. Another 73,676 individuals have sustained injuries as well.

The Israeli military offensive has left a trail of destruction in Gaza, leaving hospitals in ruins and displacing around half of its 2.4 million residents.

Israel has additionally enforced a comprehensive blockade on the coastal sliver, severing the supply of fuel, electricity, sustenance and water to the population of over two million Palestinians residing there.
