On Monday, the Iranian academics were holding placards and chanted slogans against the Israeli regime and the United States, which gave the green light to the Tel Aviv regime to carry out the atrocities against Gazans.

The Israeli regime waged the devastating war against Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas and the Islamic Jihad launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm in retaliation for the regime’s incessant assaults against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

More than 8,000 Palestinians have so far been killed in the Israeli regime’s deadly military campaign, with women, children, and the elderly accounting for some 70 percent of the fatalities.

Ever since launching the war, the regime has been allowing no more than minimal relief supplies past the Rafah border crossing, which is Gaza’s only land terminal with Egypt that bypasses the occupied territories.

The United Nations’ officials have said, though, that the aid supplies by no means correspond to huge needs on the ground.

Iranian university students gathered at the University of Tehran on October 22 in support of the oppressed Palestinian people. University students across the country also held rallies and issued statements to express their resentment against the occupying regime.
