TEHRAN – In a ceremony held at the Islamic parliament, Nasser Abu Sharif, the Islamic Jihad's representative in Iran, emphasized the unwavering commitment of the late Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Foreign Minister Amir Abdollahian to the cause of Palestine.
Abu Sharif's remarks on Tuesday underscored the deeply held belief of both martyrs in the religious and legal obligation to support Palestine.
Reflecting on his acquaintance with late Foreign Minister Amir Abdollahian, Abu Sharif highlighted the profound conviction and unwavering faith the late minister held in the Palestinian cause.
"Many years have passed since my acquaintance with Foreign Minister Amir Abdollahian, so I must confess that he had complete faith in the issue of Palestine, which is commendable," Abu Sharif stated, echoing the sentiments of many who knew the late minister.
Drawing parallels with the ideological stance of Iran's leadership, Abu Sharif emphasized the foundational importance of the Palestine issue in the teachings of Imam Khomeini and the Leader of Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.
"Imam Khomeini and the Leader of Islamic Revolution consider the issue of Palestine as an unchangeable fundamental framework, and their followers also move and act in this direction," he asserted.
Recalling the tumultuous events surrounding the Al-Aqsa Storm Operation, Abu Sharif vividly recounted the tireless efforts of late Raisi and Amir Abdollahian on both domestic and international fronts.
President Raisi, Foreign Minister Amir Abdollahian and six others died on May 19, when their helicopter crashed in foggy weather in the mountains near the northwestern border with Azerbaijan.
The helicopter carrying Raisi and his entourage was on its way to Tabriz, the capital of East Azerbaijan, from a location on the border with the Republic of Azerbaijan where the Iranian president had opened a major dam project.
Rescuers found the wreckage of the helicopter early on Monday after hours of extensive search which involved more than 70 teams.
