Syria, Iraq, Iran should act promptly to stop Israeli atrocities: Ex-IRGC chief
A former chief commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has rebuked the international community’s inaction vis-à-vis Israel’s recent wave of gory aggression on southern Lebanon, stressing that the resistance front should promptly act to stop the regime’s crimes and atrocities.
Major General Mohsen Rezaei, who currently serves as secretary of Iran’s Expediency Council, made the remarks in a Saturday post on X, formerly known as Twitter, amid Israel’s bloody strikes on the outskirts of the capital Beirut.
Israeli warplanes have over the past day conducted dozens of airstrikes and claimed a yet-to-be verified number of civilian lives by targeting residential buildings in various areas of the Lebanese capital.
Taking savagery up a notch, the Tel Aviv regime razed to the ground several building blocks in Beirut’s Dahiyeh district under the pretext of striking a depot of missiles belonging to the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah, with local media reporting upwards of 300 casualties as a result of the onslaught.
“It turned out that international organizations and world leaders, similar to Hitler’s era, have paved the way for Netanyahu’s criminal and racist gang by appeasing them. If the freedom-seekers of the world do not stand up and stop him, history will witness one of its most poignant times,” Rezaei wrote in a Persian-language post.
“Netanyahu’s criminal and racist gang will not stop with condemnations, and after Lebanon, they will attack Damascus and then Baghdad, and if the taste of bloodshed intoxicates them, they may even attack Iran. Therefore, the governments of Iraq, Syria and Iran should make a decision as soon as possible.”
Earlier, Iran’s Embassy in Lebanon called Israel’s Friday strikes on the outskirts of Beirut a serious game-changing escalation, warning that the occupying regime will face punishment over the bloody onslaught.
