to report «iusnews»; Deputy Commander of the Iranian Army Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari underlined that the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip is a sign of the regime's weakness and decay.
"Now, the Zionist regime is in a position of weakness and collapse and the presence of media has revealed all the realities on the ground and nothing is hidden from anyone," Rear Admiral Sayyari told reporters.
He urged the self-styled advocates of human rights to pay heed to Israel’s ongoing atrocities against the oppressed and defenseless people of Gaza.
The Israeli regime would have collapsed by now if it were not for the United States and European countries’ support, Rear Admiral argued.
The top Iranian commander further said if the Israeli regime was not weak and sought to fight strongly, it would have used practical military tactics instead of targeting women and children in Gaza hospitals.
Admiral Sayyari likened the Israeli regime to a mad person who carries out whatever act and stressed, "This indicates its weakness."
He pointed out that no one in the world regards harming innocent civilians, particularly women and children, as a military operation or a tactic.
The senior Iranian commander slammed Israel's raids on the Gaza Strip's al-Shifa Hospital under the pretext that there were hidden tunnels under it that were used by the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas, and said that the Israeli regime has failed to even prove its claims and "everyone acknowledged that this was an exaggeration".
Israel resumed its military offensive on the Gaza Strip on December 1 after the end of a week-long humanitarian pause with the Palestinian group Hamas.
Nearly 18,000 Palestinians have been killed and 48,780 others injured in relentless air and ground attacks on the enclave since October 7 following a cross-border attack by Hamas.
The Israeli death toll in the Hamas attack stood at 1,200, according to official figures.
