Russian Satellite News Agency, Moscow, October 31. Major General Golam Ali Rashid, commander of the Hatam Anbia Central Base of the Iranian Armed Forces, said that the intelligence possessed by the Iranian military showed that the U.S. Central Command and the U.S. Army and Navy and Israeli commands coordinate attacks against Palestine from underground bases in Tel Aviv.
Iran’s Fars News Agency quoted Rashid as saying: “Intelligence obtained by the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran shows that the U.S. Central Command, as well as the U.S. Army and Navy, together with the criminal commanders of the Israeli regime, coordinated against the prisoners from underground bases in Tel Aviv. Brutally attacked by the oppressive Palestinian people.”
He stressed that these actions and the shipment of weapons from the United States to Israel contradicted Washington’s statements that it wanted to curb the escalation of the conflict and demonstrated the hypocrisy of the US government.
On the morning of October 7, the Gaza Strip fired more than 3,000 rockets at Israel. After the rocket attack, Hamas armed personnel entered the southern border area of Israel to attack passers-by and kidnap hostages. The Palestinian “Islamic Resistance Movement” (Hamas), which actually controls the Gaza Strip, announced the launch of the “Aqsa Flood” operation against Israel. The Israel Defense Forces immediately announced the launch of Operation Iron Sword against Hamas, and Prime Minister Netanyahu declared that Israel was in a state of war. Israeli Defense Minister Galante said on the 9th that he had ordered a complete blockade of the Gaza Strip and cut off the supply of food, electricity and natural gas; Israeli Energy Minister Katz later announced that the water supply to the Gaza Strip had also been cut off.
According to official data, since the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, more than 1,300 people have been killed in Israel, more than 8,000 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip, and thousands of Palestinians and Israelis have been injured.
Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov previously stated that the bloody conflict between Palestine and Israel should be stopped immediately, and he called for a ceasefire and an end to the war. Lavrov also said that the way out to solve the Palestinian issue lies in the implementation of the “two-state solution” based on United Nations Security Council resolutions.
