Israel’s genocide in Gaza will not last even a single day without US, Europe support: Leader’s aide
A senior advisor to Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says Israel’s genocide in Gaza will not last even a single day without support of the United States and European countries.
Ali Akbar Velayati, who is also the secretary general of the World Assembly of Islamic Awakening, made the remarks in an address to a conference — dubbed Gaza, the symbol of resistance and awakening — in Tehran on Monday.
He described the United States as the “main accomplice” to the crimes committed by the Zionists in Gaza and said Washington offers considerable encouragement to the Israeli regime.
“An entity called the Zionist regime will not be able to survive for more than a few weeks without the US support,” the senior Iranian official emphasized.
He added that the unwavering political, diplomatic, media and financial support as well as military, security and defense backing provided by the US to Israel are the “main factors” behind the regime’s survival.
Washington’s full support for Israel encourages the regime’s killing machine as well as heinous crimes of the occupiers in the Gaza Strip and the entire occupied territories, he said.
Velayati warned that Muslims and Islamic resistance groups are running out of patience and said the Israeli regime needs to stop its genocide, violence and killing of the Palestinian people in Gaza immediately.
He also stressed the importance of lifting the Gaza siege completely, opening the Rafah border crossing for delivery of humanitarian aid, especially medicine, water and food and putting an immediate end to the bombardment and killing of innocent people, including children, women and the elderly.
Israel waged the bloody war on the Gaza Strip on October 7 after the Palestinian Hamas resistance movement launched the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity.
Since the start of the war, the Israeli regime has been committing war crimes in Gaza, killing at least 8,306 Palestinians, including 3,457 children, and injuring over 22,000 others.
