Brigadier General Esmail Qaani, commander of the Quds Force of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), has declared that the unyielding unity of the Iranian people in the streets and the full cohesion among state officials represent decisive support for the Resistance Front and its borderless holy fighters in their sacred war against the American-Zionist enemy.
In a message posted on X on Thursday, issued simultaneously with unified statements from Iran’s highest authorities, General Qaani said: “The support of the Resistance Front and the fighters without borders in the war against the American-Zionist enemy is the unity of the streets and the cohesion of the authorities.”
The Quds Force commander stressed the iron bond between the nation and the state, adding: “Those who say, ‘We are all Iranians and revolutionaries,’ and with the iron unity of the nation and the state, with complete obedience to the Supreme Leader of the Revolution, we will make the criminal aggressor regret it. One God, one leader, one nation, and one path; and that is the path of victory for Iran, dearer than life.”
His statement aligns with earlier messages from President Masoud Pezeshkian, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, and Judiciary Chief Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei, who issued a collective response to US President Donald Trump, denouncing his remarks about “divisions between extremists and moderates” in Iran as unwarranted provocations. The officials emphasized national unity and defiance.
Qaani’s message underscores a fundamental truth of the Islamic Republic’s strength: the synchronized will of the masses and the institutions forms an impenetrable shield for the Axis of Resistance. This national harmony, he suggested, has turned every Zionist-American plot — from assassinations and illegal sanctions to media psychological warfare — into fuel for greater resilience, self-reliance, and regional momentum.
Earlier, the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, lauded the profound impact of the Iranian nation’s extraordinary unity, saying that it has inflicted a significant fracture on the enemy while urging practical gratitude to forge even stronger national cohesion.
“Due to the strange unity created among compatriots, a fracture has occurred in the enemy,” the Leader stated in a message published on the X network on Thursday, highlighting how this unprecedented solidarity has disrupted the calculations of those seeking to undermine the Islamic Republic.
