On the anniversary of the liberation of southern Lebanon from the occupation of the Zionist regime, the Eid of resistance and liberation, Amirabdollahian sent messages to congratulate the occasion to the government, nation, and resistance groups of Lebanon.
He sent the messages to Abdallah Bouhabib, Lebanon’s minister of Foreign Affairs, and Secretary General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah Seyed Hassan Nasrallah.
In these messages, the Iranian foreign minister called this great victory the result of unity and solidarity between the army, the resistance, and the people of Lebanon, as well as the efforts and sacrifices of the fighters of the resistance and the heroic nation of Lebanon, the Iranian Foreign Ministry’s website reported.
