TEHRAN ( WNAM MONITORING): Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Sayyid Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei has described Iran’s support for the resistance front as a “strategic mandate” in a letter to Hezbollah’s Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem.
In his response to a letter from Hezbollah reaffirming its allegiance to Ayatollah Khamenei, the Leader hailed the group for standing “like an unyielding rock” against Israel’s “savage aggression.”
Ayatollah Khamenei noted that Hezbollah’s steadfastness was “an inspiring message for the free nations of the world in their quest for liberation from the oppression and tyranny of Global Arrogance and its proxies.”
The Leader emphasized that in line with the policy set by the late Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei, the Islamic Republic considers the defense of the “oppressed yet powerful mujahideen” of Lebanon to be its strategic mandate.
“The preservation of Lebanon’s territorial integrity and the absolute, unconditional termination of the Zionist regime’s aggression remain the primary condition for any agreement to ending the imposed war,” the Leader wrote.
