Hawzah News Agency- Ayatollah Arafi, head of Iran’s Seminary, issued a message to express his condolences on the martyrdom of Dr. Ahmad Bahr, deputy speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council and a member of the Hamas movement, who was martyred due to the bombardment of his home by the Zionist regime. The text of the message is as follows:
In The Name of God
The Zionist regime has always tried to drive people out of the Palestinian land, especially from the West Bank and the territories of 1948. The Zionists drive Palestinians to the southern border areas, especially Gaza Strip, and then surround them in this barrier and weaken them by cutting off their access and communication with the outside world. They turn Palestinians into an isolated and weak force in practice, so that they will not be able to fight against the occupation and defend their basic and human rights.
But now things have gone too far, and in the last few days, the Holy Land witnessed the most heinous crimes against humanity, which hurts the heart of every free and God-loving person.
The land in which the followers of all the divine and Abrahamic religions lived side by side in complete peace and tranquility will be razed to the ground.
At this time, the news of the martyrdom of Dr. Ahmed Bahr, Deputy Speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council and a member of the Hamas movement, caused great sorrow.
He was a person who was always with the Palestinian people and refused to leave Gaza when the Al-Aqsa storm operation began and finally he was martyred due to the bombardment of his home by the Zionist regime.
I, on behalf of the seminaries of Iran, while condemning the crimes of the usurper Zionist regime against the oppressed Palestinian nation, offer my condolences to the survivors of that martyr and the oppressed Palestinian people.
I ask the Almighty God for the victory of Islam and Muslims and the axis of resistance and the oppressed people of Palestine in Gaza and the defeat of the arrogant Zionism.
Alireza Arafi
Head of Iran’s Seminary
