According to a report by Press TV, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi, Deputy Chief of Staff for Culture and Software of the Iranian Armed Forces, said: “Despite the Zionists’ brutal crimes in Gaza, the victory on the battlefield was a brave and heroic one. It was Hamas.” .
He added that the Israeli regime agreed to a ceasefire only after suffering a defeat on the battlefield.
Israel was forced to accept a ceasefire agreement with Hamas on Wednesday. The long-awaited agreement took effect on Sunday after a nearly three-hour delay.
As part of the first phase of the ceasefire agreement, Israel on Monday released 90 Palestinian abductees after Hamas released three Israeli prisoners.
Furthermore, Shekarchi said that Palestinian resistance is far greater than it was before Operation Al-Aqsa, launched by Palestinian resistance fighters on October 7, 2023, in response to the Israeli regime’s escalation of aggression against Palestinians. He said that he has become stronger.
