TEHRAN - Iran's attack against Israeli positions in the occupied territories was an unprecedented operation in kind which will help Palestinians in their fight against the regime in the besieged Gaza Strip, said the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces for Logistics on Sunday.

"The capabilities and experiences we gained during the Sacred Defense era established the basis of the attack we carried out against Israel. God willing this will encourage and help Palestinians in their fight against the regime," Major General Mostafa Izadi stated while talking to reporters on the sidelines of a ceremony in Tehran.

The military official added that Iran, as a powerful country, decides when and how it should respond to enemy threats with the help and guidance of the Leader of the Islamic Revolution.

On April 14, Iran launched a large-scale drone and missile attack against military positions in the occupied territories after Israel struck the Iranian embassy in Damuscas earlier in the month.
