Head of Iran Majlis (parliament) National Security and Foreign Policy Committee Alaeddin Boroujerdi emphasized on Friday that decreasing the time needed for Gaza resistance fighters to defeat the Zionist regime of Israel to eight days means the beginning of Israel’s collapse
He pointed out that the Israeli regime’s defeat in the eight-day war on Gaza is the fourth defeat of the Zionists against Palestinian resistance fighters.
“The usurper Zionist regime [of Israel] was defeated by Hezbollah for the first time in 2000 during the liberation of the occupied lands of southern Lebanon; the second time, it was defeated in the 33-day war with Hezbollah (in 2006), and the third time in the 22-day war on Gaza (in 2008),” Boroujerdi said.
The Iranian lawmaker said the victory of the Hamas resistance movement in the war with the Israeli regime was the victory of all resistance movements in the Muslim world.
On November 14, the Israeli regime launched a deadly offensive against the blockaded Gaza Strip, which killed more than 160 Palestinians and injured some 1,200 others. In retaliation, Palestinian resistance fighters fired rockets and missiles into Israeli cities, killing at least five Israelis.
On Wednesday, Egypt announced that the Israeli regime and the Palestinian resistance movement of Hamas had reached a ceasefire agreement. Under the deal, the Palestinians and Israelis agreed to end all hostilities. But the Israeli regime did not agree to lift the Gaza Strip blockade.
