Iran’s highest-ranking military commander has underlined the need for constant consultation with Syria in the face of Israel’s aggression in the region.
Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Baqeri made the remark in a meeting with Syrian Defense Minister Ali Mahmoud Abbas in Tehran on Monday.
He said the oppressed and defenseless Palestinian people have created a great epic in the fight against Israel since early October.
He emphasized that resistance of the Palestinian people in Gaza against the “heaviest” Israeli attacks for nearly six months evinced the high power and capability of the resistance front.
“Israel’s crimes against humanity have discredited its supporters,” the top Iranian general said.
The Syrian defense minister, for his part, said the global developments have changed after the Operation al-Aqsa Storm launched by Gaza-based resistance groups against Israel.
The armed forces of Iran and Syria as members of the resistance front have made a major breakthrough in mutual relations and should further improve ties in all fields, Abbas added.
