"While governments had been attempting to seek security and US approval through normalizing relations with the Israeli regime, they should now recognize that this equation has substantially changed, rendering it fruitless for them,” Khatib said on Saturday.
"The result of these criminal acts is that the process of normalization with the Zionist regime will not return to normal after an irreparable defeat," he added.
The comments came as the health ministry in Gaza said the death toll from a devastating Israeli campaign of airstrikes on the besieged coastal enclave, now on its 15th day, has risen to at least 4,385 Palestinians, including 1,756 children.
Khatib hailed Operation al-Aqsa Storm, launched by Hamas on October 7, as the “most complex, intelligent, courageous, and effective operation” by the Resistance Front, which he said, was not only lethal and destructive for the Israeli regime, but will cause a significant shift in regional and global equations.
He emphasized that the "Zionist regime" would never “experience security”, whether internally or externally, and this will exacerbate its social divisions and political conflicts.
"The confidence and hope that the occupiers once had in their security would be forever shattered, and the deterrence capability they thought they had established beyond their fabricated territories would crumble," Iran's intelligence minister stated.
Operation al-Aqsa Storm showed that military power, advanced technologies and intelligence could not provide security for those who have embraced oppression and crimes, he noted.
