TEHRAN (FNA)- Senior Hamas official Mahmoud al-Zahar underlined that the
Palestinian resistance movement is willing to further strengthen its
bilateral ties with Iran.
"Hamas seeks to strengthen relations with Iran without any conditions,"
Zahar said on Thursday.
He pointed to a recent visit by Hamas delegation to Iran, and said, "Hamas
delegation visit to Iran was positive."
Zahar reiterated that strengthening of mutual cooperation should be in the
direction of helping the resistance program.
Hamas delegation left Tehran on Thursday after meetings with Iranian
officials.
Last week, another senior Hamas leader, Mousa Abu Marzouq, voiced
satisfaction in the close and strategic relations between the Palestinian
resistance movement and Iran, and praised Tehran for being the only country
to extend its supports to Hamas.
"Iran is the only country that has stood beside Hamas and provided the
resistance movement with financial, weaponry and training assistance,"
Palestine Today news website quoted Abu Marzouq as saying.
He noted that Iran is a country that has stood beside Hamas and for the same
reason "we are thankful of that country".
