WANA (Jun 10) – Iran’s Army Commander-in-Chief, Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi, praised the Intelligence Ministry for what he called a major intelligence victory over Israel, calling it a sign of the “imminent collapse of the cancerous tumor.”

 

According to a statement published by the Army, Major General Mousavi wrote in his message:

 

“In the Name of God, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful.

Honorable brother, Hojjatoleslam Seyyed Esmaeil Khatib,

Esteemed Minister of Intelligence,

Peace be upon you,

 

The victory of the anonymous soldiers of Imam Mahdi (may God hasten his reappearance) in a complex intelligence operation, and the renewed collapse of the intelligence prestige of the bloodthirsty Zionist regime, brought joy to the hearts of the Iranian people and to all who oppose that wicked oppressor. Congratulations to you.

 

This valuable achievement, made possible by divine favor and the will, perseverance, and silent struggle of your esteemed and dignified ministry, is another strong slap to the ugly face of the usurping Zionist regime.

 

It also signals the hopeful prospect of the early dissolution of that global cancerous tumor and affirms the Islamic Republic’s growing deterrent power and its ability to respond with greater precision and lethality to any potential aggression against Iran.

 

I congratulate you on this great success, which demonstrates the intelligence dominance of the Islamic Republic, to you, your honorable colleagues at the Ministry of Intelligence, the proud and noble intelligence community of the country, and the great nation of Iran. I pray to the Almighty for your continued success under the wise leadership of the dear Leader, Imam Khamenei.”
