Iranian military chief on Sunday telephoned Field Marshal General Asim Munir to thank Pakistan for its support during recent escalation with Israel and US.
According to Iranian media, in a phone conversation on Sunday with Field Marshal General Asim Munir, Chairman of the Chief of Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces, General Mousavi acknowledged Islamabad’s solidarity and discussed ongoing defense cooperation following the ceasefire declared on June 24.
Describing the war as “unprovoked aggression,” the Iranian commander stated that the United States was deeply involved, not only in supporting Israel politically but also by actively participating in military operations, including strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites in Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz on June 22.
He noted that several Western countries also extended various forms of support to the Israeli campaign.
“Despite early losses, including the martyrdom of several senior commanders, Iran’s military response disrupted the enemy’s plans, forcing them to seek a ceasefire,” General Mousavi said.
