Israel Approaching Its Death: Iran’s Defense Ministry


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Iranian Defense Ministry hailed the International Quds Days as a manifestation of Muslim world’s unity and struggle against occupation, saying the Zionist regime is nearing collapse considering its maniacal and brutal behavior.

In a statement released on Thursday on the eve of the International Quds Day, the Defense Ministry of Iran voiced support for the cause of Palestine and solidarity among Palestinian groups in their struggle for the liberation of the occupied territories.

As mentioned by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the fake Israeli regime is rapidly nearing the end of its life by showing lunatic, anti-human and brutal behaviors, the statement added.

It also emphasized that the enemy’s dangerous plot to incite discord among Islamic nations and faiths will end in failure, as the Zionists’ dream of expanding Israel from the Nile to Euphrates and the formation of a new region engineered by the US will fail to materialize.

Thanks to the Islamic Revolution in Iran, the discourse of resistance has turned into the dominant culture among the regional nations, the Defense Ministry stated, noting that the “crescent of resistance from Tehran to Baghdad, Damascus, Beirut and Sana’s has shattered the Western-Hebrew-Arabic dream of a new Middle East”.

It also stressed that the US policies have no place in the region anymore, adding that the Intifada (Palestinian uprising) has become a major power that has confused the Zionist leaders.

The International Quds Day is an annual event during which demonstrators express their solidarity with the Palestinian people and opposition to the occupation of the Palestinian territories by the Zionist regime of Israel.

The day is seen as the legacy of the late founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Imam Khomeini, who officially declared the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan as International Quds Day back in 1979.
