The Iranian Minister of Defense, Brigadier General Mohammed Reza Ashtiani, praised the resilience of the Yemeni people and their unwavering support for the Palestinian cause.

Tehran -ISNA- The Iranian Minister of Defense reaffirmed Iran's steadfast defense policy following the departure of President Ebrahim Raeisi, as emphasizing that the martyred president closely monitored resistance issues and developments.

The minister assured that Iran's strong foundations would prevent any disruption in the country, stating, "The course of action continues."

Ashtiani praised the resilience of the Yemeni people and their unwavering support for the Palestinian cause. He remarked, "The Yemenis have proven their strength and have truly shone in their support for Gaza and the defense of the Palestinian cause. They are a source of pride for the Arab and Islamic world."

Yemenis have openly declared their support for Palestine's struggle against Zionist occupation since the regime launched a devastating war on Gaza on October 7, following the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm by Palestinian resistance movements.

The Yemeni Armed Forces have declared that they would not cease retaliatory strikes. The maritime attacks have compelled major shipping and oil companies to suspend their voyages to the ports of the Zionist enemy.
