“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 killed and nearly 10,000 others injured since the regime launched its bloody aggression against the coastal territory.
