Last Friday of Ramadan: Iran Calls for Unity on Quds Day

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has urged the nation to participate in a "magnificent" Quds Day rally on the last Friday of Ramadan, emphasizing the importance of unity and strength in supporting Palestine and opposing Israeli occupation.

The Quds Day rally, an annual event held on the last Friday of Ramadan, is a symbol of Iranian unity and strength, with the nation participating in marches for 46 years. Khamenei noted that the event will be a powerful response to claims of divisions and weaknesses spread by opposing politicians and governments, demonstrating solidarity with Palestine. The Iranian Embassy in Islamabad stated that World Quds Day symbolizes Muslim unity worldwide, reaffirming support for the Palestinian cause and calling for an independent Palestinian state based on self-determination.

The statement condemned the Israeli regime's aggression, posing a threat to global peace and security, and criticized attempts to shift blame onto Palestinian resistance groups, Yemen, and Iran. Iran-backed groups, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthi rebels, have vowed to continue their attacks ahead of Quds Day, with leaders pledging to support Palestinians without retreating. The Embassy appreciated Pakistan's stance against the Zionist regime's crimes and reiterated the need for a sovereign, secure, and unified Palestinian state.

As the last Friday of Ramadan approaches, the Quds Day rally is expected to be a significant event, with Iran and its allies demonstrating their support for Palestine and opposition to Israeli occupation. The event serves as a reminder of 80 years of Palestinian suffering and a call for an independent Palestinian state, with the Iranian nation and its leaders reaffirming their commitment to the cause.
