Iran hosts Quds Day rallies

Iran is hosting rallies on Quds Day today in various cities across the country to support the Palestinian fight against the Zionist regime, the Fars news agency reported today.

The protesters are voicing the slogan "Death to Israel," "Death to America," and "Freedom to Quds." They are accusing Israel of grave crimes against the Palestinian people.

After the Islamic Revolution in 1979, Iran declared the last Friday of Ramadan as Quds Day to demonstrate solidarity with the Palestinian people. Every year since, Muslims all over the world have held rallies on this day to protest Israel.
