In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

 

Dear Ziad al-Nakhaleh,
Honorable Secretary-General of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement,

 

Greetings,

Thank you for your valuable message.

 

The oppressed people of Gaza, who today are facing the most brutal assaults by the usurping Zionist regime, have, with divine help, shown unparalleled resistance. In the eyes of global public opinion, they are recognized as the standard-bearers of steadfastness against enemies and patience in times of calamities and hardships.

 

The people and government of Iran, following the guidelines of the late Imam Khomeini (may his soul rest in peace) and the directives of the Supreme Leader (may he live long), stand in solidarity with the Palestinian nation. We support their cause for the liberation of Al-Quds, the destruction of the Zionist regime, and the realization of their fundamental and inherent rights.

 

I am confident that the struggles of the Palestinian people will ultimately achieve their goals. I pray to the Almighty for your success and that of the other fighters of Islamic Jihad.

 

Masoud Pezeshkian
President-Elect
