BEIRUT: Iran has vowed to respond to Israel鈥檚 attack on its Damascus consulate.
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, speaking via video at a Hezbollah event in Beirut鈥檚 southern suburb on Wednesday, described the Israeli missile strike as 鈥渢he pinnacle of failure and loss.鈥�
On the giant screen at the Jerusalem Day celebrations, Raisi added: 鈥淲ashington is an inevitable partner in the Israeli crimes in Gaza. The attack on the Iranian consulate will receive a response from the brave resistance.鈥�
The celebration saw speeches from Iran-backed movement leaders broadcast live through affiliated TV stations in Baghdad, Beirut, Tehran, Damascus and Sanaa.
Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh said in his speech: 鈥淭he occupation government is determined to continue the aggression against the Gaza Strip, and Netanyahu and those with him only care about remaining in their chairs for the longest period.鈥�
He added: 鈥淲e are adhering to our demands of a ceasefire, a comprehensive withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, the return of the displaced, the entry of aid, the reconstruction of the strip, the lifting of the siege and the conclusion of a prisoner exchange deal.鈥�
Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah鈥檚 secretary general, condemned 鈥渢he Israeli aggression that Syria is being exposed to,鈥� adding that 鈥淪yria鈥檚 position in support of all resistance movements has not changed.鈥�
He said: 鈥淲hat we need today is steadfastness, and to focus on the achievements that were achieved as a result of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, and not focus on the losses.
鈥淭here are great sacrifices, yes, but there are great results and achievements, especially the strategic ones, which we must explain to the people through all platforms that support the path of the resistance.
鈥淭he enemy seeks to transform the image of the historical achievements of the resistance into an image of defeat by distorting the facts.鈥�
Other speeches were delivered by the head of Yemen鈥檚 Houthi movement, Abdul-Malik Al-Houthi; the secretary-general of the Islamic Jihad movement in Palestine, Ziyad Al-Nakhalah; the secretary-general of the Iraqi Nujaba movement, Sheikh Akram Al-Kaabi; and Iraq鈥檚 Badr Organization and Fatah Alliance chief Hadi Al-Amiri.
