'Shove that Palestinian flag up your a**!': Iranian football fans reject IRGC's attempt to rally support

Iranian fans in Tehran demand the removal of Palestinian flags at a football match which the regime put up to “support” Palestinians.

There is no one, NO ONE who stands with us like the people of Iran!

One X/Twitter user commented: “The Iranian people are incredibly heroic, God protect them from their miserable oppressors.”

Another said the act of defiance represented, “the bright light of hope”, while a third user said: “True Iranians will always support Israel! The Islamic republic is an occupying force.”

The backfired ploy came just one day after the terror group Hamas launched a land, air, and sea invasion on the Jewish state, killing at least 700 Israelis, many of them civilians, and kidnapping scores more.

Iranian government officials congratulated Hamas on its surprise attack early Saturday morning. The Iranian regime has long supported Hamas and other militant Palestinian and anti-Israel groups.
