Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei said that the “Al-Aqsa Flood” operation was necessary for the region and came at a sensitive time, stressing that it thwarted an American-Western project to change equations in the region.
Khamenei pointed out that the Palestinians, through Operation “Al-Aqsa Flood,” succeeded in besieging the Israeli occupation government, stressing that “the Zionist entity no longer has any way to escape.”
He also added that the Palestine issue has become the number one topic in the world, noting that the “Al-Aqsa Flood” operation was necessary for the region, as it “failed attempts at normalization with the Zionist entity and its control over the region.”
Khamenei considered the “Zionist regime’s brutal attack” on Gaza to be a nervous reaction to the failure of its plans for the region, stressing that the “Al-Aqsa Flood” was a miracle that put Israel on a path that would end with its demise.
At dawn on October 7, the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) launched Operation “Al-Aqsa Flood” on the settlements surrounding the Gaza Strip in response to the continuing attacks by Israeli forces and settlers against the Palestinian people, their property, and their sanctities, especially the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem.
In response to the operation, Israel launched a devastating war on Gaza, which has so far resulted in the death of more than 36,000 Palestinians and the injury of more than 82,000 – most of them children and women – amid massive destruction of the Strip’s infrastructure.
