Iran’s Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) Major General Mohsen Rezaei has said the Islamic Republic will send Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu “to hell” and prove that his “great mistakes” have brought the Zionist regime closer to its end.

Iran’s security chief says the United States must take practical steps to implement the provisions of the Pakistan-brokered memorandum of understanding.

The secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) says Washington’s inability to reopen the Strait of Hormuz has exposed the gap between US claims and its capabilities.

Gen. Rezaei says the Leader's decision to appoint new commanders in the Iranian armed forces attracted the world's attention.

The Palestinian Resistance Committees welcomed Mohsen Rezaei’s call to end regional aggression, saying it reaffirms Iran’s support for Palestine and Lebanon and opposition to U.S.-Israeli military actions in the region.

Earlier, Iran's top security official had said that the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz hinges on an end to US-Israeli wars across the region.
