Iranian leader Seyyed Ali Khamenei announced, on Tuesday, that the events of October 7th (Operation Al-Aqsa Flood) constituted an irrevocable military and intelligence defeat for the Israeli occupation.

“I say that this devastating earthquake has managed to destroy some of the main structures of the usurping regime's governance, which cannot be rebuilt so easily,” he added.

He also assured that it was the Palestinians who conducted this epic operation which will be a huge leap toward liberating Palestine.

Seyyed Khamenei emphasized that those who think otherwise are wrong, and they do underestimate the Palestinian people.

Heads of the Zionist regime and their backers should know that the massacre and mass murder of the people of #Gaza will cause a larger calamity to come upon them.

Additionally, the Iranian leader affirmed that "when oppression and criminality exceed all limits, and when brutality comes to a peak, one should expect a storm", in reference to Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

He stated that "the courageous actions and great sacrifices" made by the Palestinians were a response to the Israeli occupation's crimes over the years.

He concluded by noting that "the wicked, oppressive enemy tries to play the role of the oppressed after receiving a huge blow, but no one can depict this satanic monster as an oppressed entity."

Amir-Abdollahian calls for unity of Islamic nations in solidarity with Palestine

On his account, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has called for an emergency meeting of the foreign ministers of the member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation regarding "the Zionist crimes in Gaza," reaffirming Tehran's readiness to host it.

Additionally, Amir-Abdollahian, in a phone call with the Secretary-General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, Hussein Ibrahim Taha, emphasized the need to strengthen the efforts of Islamic countries to assist the Palestinian people.

This comes as "Israel" has intensified its brutal airstrikes across Gaza, leading to hundreds of killings and thousands of injuries among civilians, including journalists.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported that the number of martyrs resulting from the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip has surpassed 704, with the number of injuries exceeding 3,900.

Journalists Saeed Al-Taweel, Mohammad Sobh, and Hisham al-Nwajha were martyred in an Israeli bombing that targeted areas in the western Gaza Strip, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.

Moreover, the occupation has targeted residential areas, Mosques, residential buildings, and ambulances.

In the same context, a government official in Gaza has stated that the Israeli occupation had collectively wiped out 15 families.

Our correspondent highlighted that the bombing witnessed on Monday is by far the harshest since the Israeli occupation launched its bombing campaign on the Strip.
