Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi called for Israel's expulsion from the United Nations, and said that "the war crimes being committed in Palestine are being carried out with the full support of the United States of America."

During celebrations of the 45th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution on Sunday, Raisi said, “We propose to expel the Israeli occupation from the United Nations, because it does not respect international resolutions and laws, and to prevent it from continuing its crimes against the Palestinians by cutting off all economic relations and dealings with it.”

He added during a speech he delivered before a crowd in Azadi (Freedom) Square in Tehran, "What is happening in Gaza today is a crime against humanity, and the defenders of these criminals are the American regime and some Western countries."

Raisi accused Israel of "violating 400 international resolutions, laws, and conventions" concluded within the framework of "international organizations," and considered that "the war crimes and massacres taking place in Gaza reveal the true nature of the Israeli occupation and Western countries."

He added, "We received many messages asking us to stop supporting Palestine, but we continue and Jerusalem must be liberated."

Iran recently reiterated its positions in support of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and the Palestinians following the aggression targeting the Gaza Strip since October 7, which resulted in more than 28,000 martyrs and about 68,000 injured, most of whom are women and children.
