Top Iranian filmmaker Majid Majidi has criticized the silence of Al-Azhar University scholars in the face of Israeli-American aggression against Muslim nations, including Iran

US-Israeli aggression has damaged over 56 Iranian heritage sites, including Tehran’s Golestan Palace and Isfahan’s UNESCO landmarks, in a war crime targeting the Iranian nation’s cultural identity.

Iranian academics have condemned in the strongest terms the bombardment of civilian areas and cultural sites by the United States and the Israeli regime. 

Following the election of Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei as the new Leader of the Islamic Revolution, prominent members of the country’s clergy have issued statements welcoming his election and pledging their full support to him.

A renowned Iranian filmmaker has characterized the US-Israeli war of aggression against the Islamic Republic as a fight between evil and good.

Gharibabadi says the US-Israeli attacks on historical sites constitute a “systematic” violation of international law.

At least 56 museums and historical sites have been damaged by the US-Israeli aggression, according to Iran’s Ministry of Cultural Heritage.
