The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Nasser Kanaani, said that any "foolish" Israeli attack against Iran, would be faced with a "destructive” response from Tehran and addressed Israeli officials by saying, "If you can, defend yourself in front of the Palestinian Resistance."  

As for the allegations that Iran participated in Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, Kanaani said that the Palestinian people are capable of defending themselves, adding that they have "sufficient determination and self-ability to reclaim their right, as they have proven."  

Moreover, the spokesperson underscored that the politicized and baseless accusations toward Iran or Hezbollah seek to justify the US support for the Israeli occupation government violations, targeting the Palestinians in their occupied land.

In turn, the Iranian Permanent Mission to the United Nations said in a statement that "The decisions made by the Palestinian Resistance are fiercely autonomous and unwaveringly aligned with the legitimate interests of the Palestinian people. We emphatically stand in unflinching support of Palestine; however, we are not involved in Palestine's response, as it is taken solely by Palestine itself."

IRGC leader: US cannot save 'Israel' after Operation Al-Aqsa Flood

The Commander of the Revolution Guard (IRGC), Major General Hossein Salami, confirmed that “Israel” can no longer “roister as it used to,” stressing that its era of insolence has ended.

Salami said, “The heroic Palestinians are pursuing and arresting the [Israeli] soldiers without any fears,” adding that "Israel" is no longer able to release slander and lies.

He had also praised Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, pursued by the Palestinian Resistance, in which it succeeded in inflicting heavy losses upon the occupation, saying that "today we see a strong Palestine", stressing in his Hamadan governorate speech that "today is the end of the occupation and its aggression", noting that "Americans are no longer able to save Israel."

In the same vein, Salami emphasized that the United States was "a weak backbone," reaffirming that "Israel has become weaker than it was." In parallel, Salami underscored that God is the resistance's backbone and that at the height of the blockade, the Resistance has demonstrated power that humiliated "Israel."

Iran enjoys state-of-the-art military equipment while stressing that readiness for martyrdom and the school of martyrdom are factors that would ensure winning the war.
