He underlined that the operation ‘Beyt al-Muqaddas’ that led to liberation of Khorramshah would shine eternally in the history of Iran and would be a source respect and eloquence for Iranians and their vigilance against conspiracies of the enemies.
He also referred to the coincidence of anniversary of the event with the struggle of resistance forces in the Gaza Strip against the crimes of the child-killing Israeli regime and commemorated Martyr General Qasem Soleimani and Martyr General Ali Sayyad Shirazi.
He ensured all the people of Iran that under the aegis of the Supreme Leader and Commander-in-Chief Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, Iran’s armed forces are prepared to stand firmly against any threat against Iran’s independence, territorial integrity and national security.
