Evidence shows military equipment delivered to ISIL, Iran says

A senior Iranian army commander said on Wednesday that Iran has evidence that shows 75 vehicles loaded with military equipment have been delivered to the Takfiri terrorist group ISIL (Daesh) by those who claim to be fighting the terrorists.

“Right at a time when some are chanting slogans that ISIL should be eradicated, they themselves deliver 37 cars and 38 trucks (full) of (military) equipment to ISIL,” Brigadier General Ali Arasteh, the Coordination Deputy of the Iranian Army Ground Force, said in a ceremony in Tehran.

According to Tasnim news agency, he added “We have all the images and documents on the delivery, and will release them in due time.”

He further referred to the attempts made by the Global Arrogance to undermine Islam and bring down the Islamic Revolution by reinforcing different groups, such as ISIL, saying that the enemy, under any circumstances, is willing to be present in the region and intends to question Islam by supporting the Zionists and creating Islamophobia.

Iran has frequently emphasized the need for cutting the routes through which ISIL receives financial and arms aid from other countries, particularly those in the Middle East.

Speaking on the sidelines of the 69th annual session of the United Nations General Assembly, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani called for cutting off financial resources of the terrorist group.
