Allies of Zionist entity dub Hezbollah terrorist: IRGC commander

A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says allies of the Zionists have dubbed Lebanon’s resistance movement, Hezbollah, a terrorist organization.

“Those who have created a crisis in Syria and stood by the Zionists as their allies in different wars name Lebanon’s Hezbollah [a] terrorist [organization],” senior adviser to Leader’s representative to the IRGC, Brigadier General Yadollah Javani, said on Saturday.

Javani said the Arab bloc’s groundless accusation against the resistance group is a self-harming act and a strategic mistake that would discredit the council.

He emphasized that Hezbollah is a popular movement which has been formed to confront the Israeli regime, defend Lebanon’s territorial integrity and protect rights of Muslim nations.

The IRGC commander said the [P]GCC move to declare Hezbollah a terrorist body clearly shows that the Arab bloc is following in the footsteps of the Zionists, adding that their act is in line with fulfilling the demands of the United States.

“The countries which have carried out this measure pay no heed to rights of Muslims, the interests of the Muslim world and even [those of] Arab states. Their measures are in line with responding to requests of the Americans and the Zionists,” Javani pointed out.

He said Hezbollah is a distinguished movement in the Muslim world which has a special position among Muslims and Arab nations, adding that some countries immediately reacted to the bloc’s move.
