Tehran: The commander of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Esmaeil Qa'ani, has declared that resistance rooted in divine faith has once again led to a significant victory.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, in a message delivered on Monday, Brigadier General Qa'ani stated, "Resistance rooted in divine faith has once again achieved victory, from Enqelab [Revolution] Square in Tehran to Azadi [Freedom] Square for oppressed nations." He further praised the Iranian nation and the regional resistance, particularly highlighting their steadfastness as the month of Muharram approaches. Qa'ani noted, "Bravo to the nation of Imam Hussein (AS) in Iran and the heroic regional resistance. As we approach the month of Muharram, they have demonstrated what 'Hayhat minna al-dhilla' [never to humiliation!] truly means. Indeed, blood triumphs over the sword."

Earlier in the day, the Secretariat of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) issued a statement about the Pakistan-mediated memorandum of understanding (MoU) aimed at ending the conflict between Iran and the United States. The MoU specifies that the war and military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon, will cease immediately and permanently starting Sunday night. Additionally, the naval blockade against Iran is to be lifted immediately and in full.
