Iranian Armed Forces stood with full force against aggressors: Top general
TEHRAN (Iran News) Chairman of the Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi says the Islamic Republic responded decisively and resolutely to the U.S.-Israeli war of aggression.
General Mousavi made the remarks in a phone call with Qatar’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of State for Defense Affairs Khalid bin Mohammad Al Attiyah on Tuesday.
He emphasized that the Iranian Armed Forces resisted bullying and aggression with all their might, saying the 12-day imposed war proved the legitimacy of the Islamic Republic.
All Muslim governments and freedom-loving people firmly supported Iran’s positions, which he said proved “the non-adherence to any international principles or norms by the the United States and the Zionist regime.”
The top commander continued by pointing out that Washington did not spare any assistance to Israel and provided full intelligence and logistical support to the regime against Iranian retaliatory missile and drone attacks.
He also thanked the government of Qatar for condemning the aggressors, and being one among the countries that have firmly supported the struggles of the oppressed people of Palestine.
The Qatari minister, for his part, expressed his condolences for the martyrdom of Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri.
The State of Qatar condemned Israel’s aggression against Iran from the very beginning and announced that Doha would not allow its airspace and territory to be used against Iran, Khalid Al Attiyah said.
