Sayyed Khamenei: Sending Aid Convoys Should be Organized Repeatedly

Sayyed Ali Khamenei said the attack on the international convoy was an act of lunacy, adding that it brings "Israel" closer to its end.

"Zionism is a new and more aggressive face of fascism which is this time supported by governments claiming to be advocates of freedom and human rights with the US above all," His Eminence added.

The Leader also wondered, "What does the three-year blockade of food and medicine imposed on 1.5 million Palestinians mean? How are massacre, torture and imprisonment of young Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank understandable?"

Sayyed Khamenei noted that the symbolic act of sending aid convoys to the impoverished Gaza strip should be organized repeatedly in various forms and ways.

"Israeli" forces attacked on Monday dawn the international Freedom Flotilla humanitarian aid convoy to the besieged Gaza Strip, resulting in at least 20 martyrs and leaving more than 50 injured.

When attacked by "Israel", the convoy ships were still in international waters.
