Undoubtedly, the destruction of global Zionism is the punishment for assassination of Brig Gen Mohammad Reza Zahedi and his comrades, Mohammad Mahdi Esmaeili, Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance wrote.
“Our relentless struggle continues until its realization,” Esmaeili said.
“As in the past, we will not hesitate to take any cultural and media initiative to explain the unprecedented barbarities of Zionism,” he said.
Today, more than ever, it is clear to the aware people of Iran how global Zionism is determined to kill the free people and the defenseless barefoot people of the world, he said.
The Israeli regime attacked Iran’s consulate in the Syrian capital of Damascus on Monday evening. The Israeli aggression led to the destruction of the entire building and the martyrdom and injury of the entire people inside it.
