TEHRAN (ISNA) - Iranian Army Commander denied Zionist regime's claims on seizure of a Gaza-bound Iranian vessel.
Brigadier General Ataollah Salehi said on Wednesday that the Zionist regimes' claims have always been mixed with lies and the regime would suffer most from the regional events.
"The arrogant countries of the nineteen century condemned militarism, but now, they all resort to militaristic means and seek to repress regional wronged nations," he said referring to the regional turmoil.
"I hope they will give up their current methods," he continued adding that it is impossible to occupy a country forever.
Regarding the army's developing programs, he said, "according to the perspective of development, we are in the way of progress."
"Last year we successfully sent our vessels to the Mediterranean Sea and we expect our navy will navigate in the oceans which will manifest our power carrying a message of peace and friendship," he added.
