Iran gives grand welcome to families of Gaza martyrs

People in Tehran have given a grand welcome to the 65 families of Gaza martyrs, who reached the city on Tuesday.

They expressed their solidarity and support for the people of war-torn city and paid emotional tributes to their martyrs.

The wife of Hossein Amirabdollahian, the late Iranian foreign minister who was martyred in a helicopter crash along president Ebrahim Raisi in May, addressed the gathering.

“Greetings and salutations to the dear sisters and brothers who have sent your children to the eternal abode from under the rubble and ruins of Gaza with a steadfast stature,” she said.

“Welcome to Iran, the motherland of the Islamic world.”

It should be remembered that the Israeli government has been committing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza for the last nine months, in which the number of martyrs has exceeded 38,000, most of them children and women.
