Top official from Palestinian resistance group Hamas has hailed the note by the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei voicing support for the Palestinian resistance movement.

Speaking to the Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) in Gaza on Tuesday, Ismail Radwan, a Hamas spokesperson, thanked Ayatollah Khamenei for his letter of support to Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Palestinian resistance group’s political bureau.

In his letter, Ayatollah Khamenei had assured Palestinian resistance fighters that as ever, Iran always has their back and will not forsake its duty of confronting the occupying Israeli regime’s evil nature.

The Hamas official said the Leader’s stance is indicative of Iran’s clear support for the Palestinian resistance movement, adding, “This shows that we are not alone in the region in a full confrontation with the Zionist entity and the Americans’ project.”

He lauded the Islamic Republic for not wavering in its support of the Palestinian cause against Israeli occupation even despite all the pressure and sanctions it is facing.
The Hamas official added that Iran’s support for Palestine frightens the Israeli regime.

Radwan said Hamas would strongly continue its resistance until the defeat of the Israeli regime’s occupation and the US administration’s so-called deal of the century, adding that it would never be possible for the regime to steal the Palestinian land.

He further called on the Palestinian Authority to stop cooperating with security bodies working to pave the way for recognizing the Israeli entity, urging the formation of the biggest ever Arabic-Islamic front, led by Iran and the resistance movement, to provide Palestine with full support in the face of the occupation.
