TEHRAN— The Chief of Iran’s Army, Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi, has declared that the Islamic Republic’s retaliatory response to the Zionist regime, known as Operation True Promise, will hasten the liberation of Palestine and the downfall of the Zionist regime.

During a visit to the Friday prayer Imam of Paveh, a city in western Iran, General Mousavi emphasized that this operation has invigorated the regional resistance movement.

On April 1, the Israeli regime conducted airstrikes on the consular section of Iran's embassy in Damascus, Syria, resulting in the deaths of two IRGC generals, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi and General Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, along with five of their accompanying officers.

In response, the IRGC launched Operation True Promise on April 13, targeting Israeli military bases across the occupied Palestinian territories with a series of drone and missile strikes. 

General Mousavi also praised the discernment of the people of Paveh, acknowledging the city's historical significance in the Islamic Revolution.

Highlighting the implications of Operation True Promise, General Mousavi stated that the global community now recognizes the Islamic Republic as a formidable power, attributing this strength to the unwavering resolve of the Iranian nation.

Additionally, General Mousavi affirmed the role of the Iranian Army as the guardian of the nation. He emphasized that the Army, in conjunction with the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), Faraja, Basij, and other dear forces under the leadership of Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, is dedicated to ensuring the well-being of the region's populace.

In conclusion, General Mousavi remarked that the primary objective of Operation Al Aqsa Storm was to reassert the centrality of the Palestinian issue within the Islamic world.

The Al-Aqsa Storm Operation, executed by the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas on October 7, 2023, marked a pivotal event that significantly altered the geopolitical landscape of Palestine and the broader West Asia region.
