The chief commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says the Israeli regime is moving towards its “inevitable collapse” in a “war of attrition” with Palestinians resistance movements.
Major General Hossein Salami made the remarks while addressing a rally in the Iranian capital Tehran on Saturday. The nationwide protest was held to show solidarity with Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip who have been under relentless Israeli attacks since October 7.
"Palestine stands on the path of a war of attrition...Israel will face a definitive defeat," he declared. "Operation Al-Aqsa Storm showed that the US help cannot save Israel from the danger of collapse."
It is the "biggest humiliation" for the US and Israel who believe they can emerge victorious in the ongoing war on Gaza by killing children and infants, Salami stated.
Even the Israeli army cannot prevent heavy operations against the Tel Aviv regime, he added.
The IRGC chief emphasized that the ongoing military operation also revealed that the Palestinian resistance fighters can defeat the Israeli regime within only 48 hours.
He said the bombardment of people in Gaza and the US efforts to prevent the establishment of a ceasefire in the besieged Strip as well as its political and logistic support for Israel showed moral collapse in the United States.
