(IRNA) - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has just joined large groups of people taking part in the International Quds Day rallies on the last Friday of the holy fasting month of Ramadhan, reports Trend.
The International Qods Day rallies were initiated by the late founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran Imam Khomeini to voice the protest of the Islamic Ummah against Zionists.
Protesters in Tehran are crowding the streets leading to Tehran University campus where the Friday Prayers ceremony will be conducted by Expediency Chairman Ayatollah Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani later on.
The fasting people taking part in the rally are chanting such slogans as "Death to America" and "Death to Israel" to express their hatred of the world hegemonic powers as well as the Zionist regime.
