Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi strongly criticized Western backing for the ongoing Israeli aggression, emphasizing that the legitimate demands and resistance of the Palestinian people will persist no matter what.
Addressing a gathering in Rostam County, Raisi condemned countries supporting "Israel", stating that they are complicit in the entity's crimes. He reiterated that the rightful demands and resistance of the Palestinian people will continue despite these crimes, asserting that the Palestinian issue remains a collective responsibility.
"Countries that support the Zionist regime should know that they are accomplices in the regime's crimes," he said.
He emphasized that the legitimate aspirations and resilience of the Palestinian people won't be quelled by these actions.
Elsewhere in his remarks, he stressed that the Palestinian cause won't be resolved by merely devastating Gaza, and the global community and the Palestinian people will hold those responsible accountable, as they view safeguarding Palestine as their obligation. This statement was made in the context of addressing Western backers of the regime, particularly the United States.
"The issue of Palestine will not end by destroying Gaza; the people of Palestine and the world will hold you accountable because we consider defending Palestine as our duty," Raisi said.
Raisi's remarks came as the Israeli occupation forces persist in committing massacres against Palestinian families, even against children under six years old, in a flagrant violation of fundamental human values.
According to the most recent figures from the Palestinian Ministry of Health, the Israeli aggression on Gaza has led to the martyrdom of more than 1800 Palestinians, including around 600 children, and the injury of at least 6,300 people, with at least 1,644 of them being children.
