Raisi made the remark in a meeting with head of the political Bureau of the Palestinian movement of Hamas, Ismail Haniyah in Tehran on Wednesday.

The Iranian president noted that Operation al-Aqsa Flood inflicted an irreparable defeat on the Zionist regime.
Raisi added that today, Hamas and other Palestinian resistance groups, with their bravery and struggle, and the oppressed Palestinian children, with their pure blood, have proven that the biggest war crime and genocide in history was committed in Gaza with the support of the US, which is deplorable.
Haniyah for his part said the religious and ideological approach to supporting Palestine stems from the profound view of the officials of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Haniyah’s visit to Tehran comes after the UN Security Council passed a resolution, demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza on Monday.

The head of the political bureau of Hamas added: “In order to achieve their goals, the Zionists took various brutal actions and committed crimes, including mass killings of citizens, women, and children, extensive and organized destruction, complete military siege, and starvation of the people and residents of the Gaza Strip.”
He said, “These actions resulted in about 100,000 martyrs, wounded and missing persons, injured veterans, as well as total and partial destruction of about 60% of the Gaza Strip and the displacement of about 1.5 million people towards Rafah. However, I emphasize that despite all these crimes, the enemy could not achieve any of its objectives.”
He also emphasized that the Zionists consider the cessation of war to be a strategic failure for them, the first result of which will be the fall of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. Despite the rhetoric, America has not made any strategic changes in its positions or support for the Zionist regime.”
Haniyeh called for more serious and effective action by the Islamic countries and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation in support of the Palestinians.
Amirabdollahian, for his part, referred to the resolution approved by the United Nations Security Council on Monday, calling it a belated yet positive action and a political victory for the Palestinian nation.
