Iran’s Place in World Elevated after Anti-Israeli Operation: Raisi

In comments at a meeting with provincial governors on Sunday, Raisi hailed the ‘True Promise Operation’ that the Iranian armed forces carried out against Israeli military targets last month as a milestone in the history of Iran.

He said the retaliatory operation has boosted Iran’s might, power, dignity and hope and proved that the Iranian nation seeks a free and independent life.

The military operation, which was carried out with reliance on God, placed Iran in a higher position among regional and international powers, the president said.

In the early hours of April 14, the IRGC Aerospace Force launched tens of missiles and drones against military targets in the occupied territories in retaliation for the Israeli regime’s April 1 airstrike on the consular section of Iran’s embassy in Damascus that killed seven Iranian military commanders and advisers.

In a meeting with top Iranian military commanders on April 21, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei admired the Iranian Armed Forces for manifesting the country’s power and determination in the international arena by conducting the retaliatory operation against the Israeli regime.
