Leader's representative at IRGC: Iran to continue support for Palestine

FNA - Iranian Supreme Leader's representative at the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Ali Saeedi underlined Iran's continued support for the oppressed Palestinian people against Israel.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran supports Palestine whole-heartedly," Saeedi said, addressing a forum in Tehran on Tuesday.


He added that by reliance on the resistance groups, the Palestinian people have grown so powerful today that they can confront Israel, saying, "Today, those who dreamt of a reign from the Nile to the Euphrates cannot sleep for the fear of Hamas."


His remarks cams as an Israeli website known for its close links to the regimes military intelligence services admitted that the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas is now possessing game-changing missiles that could hit targets in Israel with considerable ease and precision.


The Debka file said in a report on Saturday that its sources had identified the type of modern missiles used by Hamas in recent attacks on the Israeli-occupied territories that inflicted considerable damage and casualties on the regime and forced the Israeli government to accept a ceasefire with the Palestinians.


It noted that the missiles were of the 333mm-caliber type and had a medium range of 11 kilometers.


The report added that the missiles were capable of destroying Israels artillery emplacements, Iron Dome batteries, armored force concentrations whether over ground or in trenches, as well as combat engineering equipment and command centers.


It is not launched from stationary batteries, but from any combat 44 vehicle or jeep, each of which carries two rockets, the report said, adding that the main advantage of the missiles was its mobility which allowed Hamas to fire them from any area in the Gaza Strip without Israeli radars noticing them.


The report came days after Israelis signed into a ceasefire with Hamas after a barrage of resistance missile attacks on southern occupied territories killed one and injured more than 80 Israelis.


The Israeli government decision to accept the Egyptian-brokered ceasefire, prompted its minister for military affairs Avigdor Lieberman toresign. Hamas called the resignation, which could bring about early elections in the occupied lands, asan admission of defeatand a political victory for the Palestinian resistance.


Lieberman said after resigning from the Israeli cabinet that Hamas was on its way to become a serious threat to Israel, saying in a year time, the group and its partner in Gaza, the Islamic Jihad Movement, would reach the military prowess of Hezbollah, the dominant resistance movement in Lebanon which has successfully defended the small country against Israeli aggression in the past.
