Ramanshah- Political, Security and Social Deputy of Paveh Governorate said: The blood of the oppressed and innocent people of Palestine will be the basis for the destruction of Israel.

According to the reporter of Mehr, Farshad Sheikhi said in the meeting to clarify the false beliefs about Israel and Palestine and the distortions of the Jewish religion, which was held in the presence of the deputy director general of the provincial public libraries and the administrative council of the city, in the meeting hall of the governorate, during the 23 days. In the past, believers have witnessed widespread crimes by the usurping Israeli regime, and we all know that the crimes of this regime are not a new issue.

He added: "The Zionist regime has not failed to do whatever it can in the past 75 years."

Political, Security and Social Deputy of Paveh Governorate stated: This usurping regime has martyred many women, children, old people and young people during this period.

Sheikhi said: These crimes, massacres and destructions will not end in the favor of the child-killing regime, and soon there will be a flood of destruction by the rod of Moses and this horrible regime will be consigned to history.

He added: European and American countries and compromise governments should know that cruelty has no place in today's world, and if you don't listen to the voices of the oppressed people of Gaza, listen to the voices of your nations.

Sheikhi stated: The liberating school of Islam and the ideals of Imam Khomeini (RA) and the path of Hajj Qasims continue, and soon the oppressed nations will see the repetition of history, and the Yazidis will come to understanding, and the Hussains will remain forever in history.

Ali Bagheri Kani made the remarks in a meeting with Deputy Secretary of the Russian Security Council Alexander Venediktov in Moscow on Friday as the Israeli regime continued its brutal attacks against the defenseless people in Gaza for the past 21 consecutive days.

The Russian security official, for his part, said the United States is the root cause of the ongoing worrisome situation in Palestine.

Venediktov added that the US seeks to cause crisis in the West Asia region by creating centers of tension. He said the US survival depends on obtaining material benefits from developing crisis, saying the White House rulers are not keen on improving regional stability and peace.

On October 7, the Palestinian Resistance group Hamas launched its biggest operation against the Israeli regime in years in a surprise attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, in response to the occupying regime’s intensified crimes against the Palestinian people.

Since then, the Israeli regime has pressed ahead with a relentless bombardment of Gaza. The death toll in Gaza since the start of the Israeli onslaught has reached 7,326, including 3,038 children and 1,726 women. Around 18,967 Palestinians have also been wounded.

Tel Aviv has also blocked water, food, and electricity to Gaza, plunging the besieged territory into a humanitarian crisis.

Venediktov officially invited Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Ali Akbar Ahmadian to visit Moscow to discuss the latest mutual, regional, and international issues.

Bagheri Kani traveled to Moscow on Thursday at the invitation of his Russian counterpart to exchange views about the Israeli regime's war in Gaza.

He held talks with Mousa Abu Marzouk, a member of the Hamas political bureau, in Moscow.

Welcome to Gaza, a place where every phone call bears the news of somebody being killed, every message conveys the destruction of a friend’s home, and each air strike sends tremors of fear through your heart.

In this land, “home” is no longer a sanctuary for living and relaxation; it’s a precarious existence, subject to sudden devastation without warning.

The biggest hope one clings to is simply staying alive with their family, avoiding the heart-wrenching loss of a loved one or facing a collective demise.

Consider the families erased from the civil registry, obliterated together. At first glance, it seems like a catastrophe, but on closer examination, it resembles a tragic yet merciful conclusion under the relentless bombings.

No one is left to mourn. And in a way, some people envy those who found a peaceful end, escaping the ongoing madness of shelling and killing.

Scanning the news – on the rare occasions when there’s internet access – and witnessing the chaos surrounding aid trucks entering Gaza, one can’t help but find the world’s priorities bewildering.

Rather than focusing on efforts to stop the war, the emphasis seems to be on delivering aid.

What the people of Gaza need even more than food, water or other assistance is an end to the senseless violence, bloodshed and destruction. They cry out for the war to stop.

It is now day 18, and for three days, I’ve been unable to share these notes in my diary because of the lack of internet access. Yet, despite the passage of time, nothing changes significantly. Gaza remains trapped in the repetitive cycle of death and devastation that the world has grown accustomed to seeing.

According to experts, the normalization of Arab countries' relations with Israel, which resumed three years ago after a fourteen-decade hiatus, is one of the motivations and factors of the recent war, and one of the issues that are affected by this war. In 2020, Netanyahu's government, with the support of the then American government headed by Donald Trump, was able to significantly increase the number of Arab countries that recognized the existence of the Israeli regime and signed agreements to normalize relations with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco. In the past months, the United States has been putting a lot of pressure on Saudi Arabia to join this process and, as one of the most important countries in the Islamic world, the host of the holiest places for Muslims and the self-proclaimed leader of the Arab world, to normalize its relations with Israel and treat this regime as a country to recognize.

On the first day of the war, in response to the Hamas operation, the Al-Monitor news website headlined: "Normalization, the first casualty of the war." Sabah Zanganeh, an analyst of Middle East issues, says: "What happened greatly affected the situation in the region. Due to the violence that the Zionist regime took in response to the Hamas operation, the social and political atmosphere of the entire Middle East region and the public opinion of the Arab countries have been affected. Zanganeh believes: "With this situation, the issue of normalization will be in a coma for the time being, and the countries that have started normalization will be exposed to the pressure of the public opinion of the region and their own people, so the process of normalization will not be discussed for a long time." This analyst of regional issues believes: "Although America spent a lot of energy and tried to normalize relations with more Arab countries in various meetings and negotiations, and even sought to launch a corridor project connecting India through the UAE and Saudi Arabia to Jordan and Israel, But this project will not go anywhere for now."

Referring to Netanyahu's constant claim that peace with the Arabs will mean the end of the conflict in the region and the establishment of peace and stability, Sabah Zanganeh says: "Netanyahu's statements were a cunning attempt to destroy the rights of the Palestinians and to forget the whole issue of Palestine." The countries that entered normalization either neglected. That is, they agreed to normalize their relations with a regime that occupies a land, expels its people, conducts military operations every now and then, imprisons and kills. It was an anti-human project and idea, and in fact, in the latest action of this regime, that trick has been exposed."

The meeting took place in the Imam Khomeini Hussainiyah on October 17, 2023. During the meeting, Imam Khamenei said, “The officials of some countries have voiced their protest in their conversations with our officials as to why the Palestinians have been killing civilians. This statement is not true because the residents of the settlements are not civilians. They are armed, but even assuming that they are civilians, how many of them were killed compared to the number of Palestinian civilians that were martyred in recent days?”

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution added that “The usurping regime has killed a hundred times that number in these few days. They’ve killed several thousands of women, children, old and young civilians. By bombing populated centers and buildings that it knows are civilian residences, it is committing crimes before the entire world.”

While emphasizing that the usurping Zionist regime must certainly be prosecuted for these crimes, Imam Khamenei held the US government responsible for the policies of the usurping regime, and said: “Based on various [sources of] information, the Americans are the policy makers and regulators of the current policies of the Zionist regime. The United States is responsible in this matter and must accept its responsibility.”

Underlining that the bombing of the Gaza Strip should be stopped immediately, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution cited the gatherings of Muslim nations in Islamic countries and even non-Muslims in the US and Europe as a sign of the serious fury of nations at the crimes taking place at the hands of the Zionist regime.

On the same note, Imam Khamenei stated, "If these crimes continue, Muslims and the Resistance forces will lose their patience and no one will be able to stop them. They should know this and they should not expect others to stop certain groups from doing certain things."

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution added, " Whatever crimes the Zionist regime commits will fail to compensate for its disgraceful defeat during the Al-Aqsa Storm operation."

In another part of his speech, he regarded the several million young Iranian graduates and students as a great and valuable fortune. “Many of these motivated, determined young people have valuable suggestions for solving problems.” 

Imam Khamenei outlined that scientific activities have been taking place in some countries in the region after observing Iran’s scientific progress. “Our previous progress should not make us proud and hold us back from the current scientific competition in the world. Despite all our progress, we are still behind in terms of knowledge and science,” he added.

From Baghdad and Amman to Jakarta and Islamabad, large protests are held in solidarity with the Palestinians.

Tens of thousands of people have poured onto the streets around the world in support of the Palestinians as Israel prepares for a possible ground invasion of the Gaza Strip.

Protesters denounced Israel’s heavy bombardment of the besieged enclave that has so far killed more than 1,500 people and it came after an unprecedented attack by Hamas, the group running Gaza, killed more than 1,300 people in Israel.

In Baghdad, large crowds filled Tahrir Square in the centre of the Iraqi capital for protests called by the influential Shia leader Muqtada al-Sadr.

In Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, demonstrators took to the streets waving Yemeni and Palestinian flags.

After prayers in Islamabad, Pakistan’s capital, some worshippers stepped on US and Israeli flags, in a sign of disrespect.

Some 1,000 Muslims rallied in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, after Friday prayers to show solidarity with the Palestinians. Chanting “Free Palestine” and “Crush the Zionists”, they burned two effigies draped with Israeli flags.

Islamic leaders in Indonesia appealed to all mosques in the world’s most populous Muslim-majority nation to pray for peace and safety for the Palestinian people.

The chairman of the Indonesian Mosque Council had urged all mosques to perform the Qunut Nazilahto prayer, one made for protection, to ask for God’s help so that “the conflict in the Gaza Strip would end quickly”.

The death toll from Israel’s savage attacks on the Gaza Strip continues to rise nearly a week after the regime launched its brutal onslaught on the besieged Palestinian territory.

The Health Ministry in Gaza announced on Friday that at least 1,900 Palestinians, including 614 children, and 370 women have been martyred in seven days of incessant Israeli bombardment of the blockaded territory.

At least 7,696 Palestinians have also been wounded in the bombardment.  

70 people, mostly women and children, martyred while fleeing 

Meanwhile, officials in Gaza said that 70 people, mostly women and children, were killed in Israeli airstrikes on convoys fleeing Gaza City on Friday.

Hamas’ media office said the cars were struck in three places as they headed south from Gaza City. 

The Israeli army ordered residents to evacuate the city early Friday ahead of an expected ground invasion.

Israeli forces killed at least 16 Palestinians across the occupied West Bank as they opened live fire on demonstrators rallying to show solidarity with the people of the Gaza Strip.

People took part in demonstrations in cities across the Israeli-occupied West Bank on Friday, including Ramallah, Tulkarem, Nablus and al-Khalil (Hebron).

The Palestinian health ministry said in the early hours of Saturday that a total of 51 people have been killed since Oct. 7.

The regime’s air raids claimed at least two dozen lives in the densely populated Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza on Thursday.

Hundreds of thousands of Gazans have also been displaced as a result of the regime's relentless and indiscriminate attacks.

At least 423,000 people have now been forced to flee their homes in the Gaza Strip, the United Nations said.

As of late Thursday, the number of displaced people in Gaza had risen by an additional 84,444 people and reached 423,378, the UN humanitarian agency OCHA said.

The coastal territory remains under Israel’s complete siege with no access to electricity, water, food, and medicines.

Israel started its onslaught on Saturday after Gaza-based resistance groups launched a multi-front operation against the regime.

Israel used banned white phosphorus munitions against desperate people in Gaza, a human rights monitor said.

In a post on X on Thursday, Maha Hussaini, director of strategies at the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor in Geneva, said that the Tel Aviv regime was “using internationally prohibited white phosphorus in Gaza.”

“These munitions are an indiscriminate incendiary weapon that ignites on contact with oxygen. In closed spaces, the toxic fumes can cause asphyxiation & permanent respiratory damage,” she added.

Meanwhile, Human Rights Watch also said on Thursday Israel used white phosphorus munitions in Gaza and Lebanon.

The United Nations Humanitarian Office (OCHA) said on Thursday that Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip has inflicted damage on over 12,600 homes in the coastal territory.

It added that 1,000 of these homes were flattened and another 560 housing units sustained serious damage, which rendered them uninhabitable.

Many people in the impoverished sliver face dire shortages of water, fuel and medical supplies, as all 13 hospitals there are only partially operational due to severe shortages of fuel and crucial medical supplies.

It said that the reduction in water supplies due to Israel's tightening its siege on the strip has resulted in dire water shortages for more than 650,000 people in the territory of 2.3 million.

As sewage systems have been destroyed, fetid wastewater is sent into the streets and posing a health hazard, OCHA added.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), also known as Doctors Without Borders, warned on Wednesday that hospitals across Gaza are overwhelmed and experiencing shortages of drugs, medical supplies and electricity.

In a statement, Avril Benoît, executive director of MSF-USA, said the aid agency was "seeing shortages of water, electricity, and fuel, which hospitals rely on for their generators."

Gaza is under full Israeli siege and now the only power plant there has shut down due to a fuel outage. According to health authorities, overwhelmed hospitals without electricity will have to rely on their emergency generators, which will only last two to four days.

Hassan Khalaf, the medical director of al-Wafa Hospital in Gaza City, said there are currently 100 newborn babies relying on medical equipment currently in Gaza.

The Al-Aqsa Storm, the operation of the Palestinian Resistance groups in the Gaza Strip against the Israeli regime, and the settlements around Gaza caused a historic shock to the Zionists.

The lack of preparation of the Israeli regime's intelligence agencies caused more than a thousand Zionists to be killed and nearly 150 others captured by the Resistance forces in a few hours.

Al-Aqsa Storm showed how vulnerable the Zionist military is to an offensive operation. This vulnerability is an issue that has been repeatedly warned by Zionists in recent years.

Netanyahu's strategy regarding Iran's nuclear program has also been completely destroyed, and Tel Aviv's relations with the United States are tense as never before. Without the US, which is considered a very important ally of the Israeli regime, it is unlikely that the regime can last even a day, Zionist newspaper Haaretz wrote in an article.

Israel is now facing a storm that analysts previously warned of a multi-front war, the source said, adding, "All these conflicts weaken Israel's deterrent power and destroy its international standing. The only regime that is predicted to change in the near future in the region is Israel, not Iran."

On the second day of the Al-Aqsa Storm Operation, 3 rockets were fired from the border of Lebanon into the headquarters of the Zionist Army at the occupied territories.

An hour later, the Lebanese Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attack in a clear statement and threatened the Zionists against intensifying the tension and pressure against Gaza.

In recent years, Zionist experts have repeatedly warned against the formation of two or more fronts in the battle against Tel Aviv.

Zionists are worried and afraid of Lebanese Hezbollah's more serious entry into the Al-Aqsa Storm Operation.

According to the Hebrew media, half of the army's strength has been transferred from Gaza to Lebanon's border in order to prevent the occurrence of the October 7 surprise attack.

More than 75% of the settlers living in Al-Jalil in northern Occupied Lands (bordering Lebanon) have left this area as they are afraid of infiltration and possible attack by the Resistance 

Many analysts and experts believe that in the current crisis, when the Zionist regime is involved in both internal and external crises, it cannot fight even on one front.

Meanwhile, the entry of the Lebanese front into the battle with Tel Aviv will multiply and disperse the concentration of the Zionist army and armored forces.

The Zionists know that Lebanese Hezbollah has much more power in the face of the tired and defeated army of the regime.

Nations have been oppressed on many occasions, but their enemies have never been this shameless, this evil, and this brutal. No Muslim nation has been under or is under such pressure, been besieged, or faced shortages like the Palestinian nation has. Western governments, especially the US and England, have never supported and helped any government as much as this fake, oppressive, bloodthirsty government. First England, then the US, and various other governments along with them helped this ruthless regime.
