International summit on Palestine held in Tehran

The daughter of the founder of the Islamic Republic organized an international summit in the Iranian capital to highlight Imam Khomeini relentless support for the Palestinian issue.

The summit was held in early June at the defense museum in the Iranian capital with the efforts of Seyyeda Zahra Mostafavi, the daughter of late Imam Khomeini.

The gathering was attended by hundreds of foreign guests from 67 countries, the representatives of Palestinians resistance Hamas movement, and foreign nationals residing in Iran.

The confab was held on the eve of 26th passing away anniversary of Imam Khomeini.

The international conference aimed at introducing the foreign guests about Imam Khomeini’s ideals towards Palestine.

Zahra Mostafavi, the head of all Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), earlier told media outlets that Imam’s took stance against the Israeli regime and stood for Palestinians rights because the founder of Islamic Republic was against any type of aggression, violence, cruelty and oppression.

The founder of the Islamic Revolution is considered as a great supporter of the Palestinians rights and backer of other oppressed nations in contemporary history.

Imam Khomeini led Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution, which culminated in the overthrow of the US-backed Mohammad Reza Pahlavi’s monarchy.

Imam Khomeini passed away on June 4, 1989 at the age of 87.

Every year, millions of Iranians from across the country travel to Tehran to pay homage to the late founder of the Islamic Republic.

Rouhollah Mousavi Khomeini, better known as Imam Khomeini, was born in the central Iranian city of Khomein on September 24, 1902 to a family of scholars.
