Israel Defies Ceasefire Agreement, Refuses Full Withdrawal from Lebanon
Troops remain in five strategic locations, raising fears of renewed tensions and long-term occupation.
Bagheri Qani made this appeal during a meeting with former Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul-Mahdi in Tehran on Monday night. During the meeting, the Iranian diplomat mentioned strategic changes and developments that have taken place at the regional and international levels since Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, launched by Palestinian resistance forces in Gaza on October 7 last year.
The "True Promise" forced Iran to make Israel pay for the criminal attack on its embassy in the Syrian capital.On April 1, the Israeli regime bombed the consulate of the Iranian embassy in the Syrian capital Damascus, killing two Revolutionary Guards officers, Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Zahedi and Brigadier General Mohammad Hadi Haji Rahimi, and five of their companions.
In retaliation, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) attacked the occupied territories with a barrage of missiles and drones on April 13. The retaliatory attack, named "Operation True Promise", damaged Israeli military bases in the occupied Palestinian territories. Iranian interim foreign minister:
Strong ties between neighboring countries will lead to the expulsion of outsiders from West Asia
Bagehri-Qani stressed that prominent thinkers and elites from the Islamic world must play a greater role and exert pressure on Israel and its backers, especially the United States, to enable the occupying regime to stop its crimes and genocide in the Palestinian territories.
The Iranian acting foreign minister also highlighted and reaffirmed the outstanding and undeniable role played by the late Iranian counter-terrorism supreme commander General Qassem Soleimani, the late President Ebrahim Raisi and the late Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian in supporting the resistance axis. The Islamic Republic of Iran will continue its principled approach without flinching.
The two sides also discussed a wide range of international and regional issues, including the crimes and genocide of the Palestinian occupying regime and the moral and human responsibility of the Islamic government in this regard. Prime Minister Abdul Mahdi was in Tehran to express condolences for the death of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who died along with seven others in a helicopter crash in northwestern Iran on May 19.
