Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman has condemned the Zionists' repeated attacks on al-Aqsa Mosque and the brutal attacks by Israeli forces on worshipers and defenders of Palestinian holy sites, saying occupation and the occupiers are on the decline, and the struggle against the usurpers of al-Quds and Palestine is a natural, legitimate and legal right of the Palestinian people.


Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh has condemned the Zionists' repeated attacks on al-Aqsa Mosque and the brutal attacks by Israeli forces on worshipers and defenders of Palestinian holy sites, saying occupation and the occupiers are on the decline, and the struggle against the usurpers of al-Quds and Palestine is a natural, legitimate and legal right of the Palestinian people.

The foreign ministry spokesman referred to the escalating aggression and brutal actions of the Israeli apartheid regime in the occupied Palestinian territories, calling on nations, governments and regional as well as international organizations to help the Palestinians defend themselves against the Zionist occupiers.

Khatibzadeh concluded his statement by emphasizing the need for the unity of the Islamic world to defend Palestine and save al-Aqsa Mosque, and described the normalization of relations with the Israeli apartheid regime as one of the factors that encourage and intensify violence by Zionists in the occupied Palestinian territories.
