Iran says it will send aid to Lebanon if Beirut air corridor can be opened

Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has reiterated his promise that Tehran stands by the people, government and resistance forces of Lebanon amid Israeli attacks. “Iran is ready to help the war-stricken, displaced and wounded people under the supervision of the Lebanese government and send assistance if an air corridor can be opened by the government for Beirut,” he said following a meeting with Lebanese Parliament Speaker and Amal Movement leader Nabih Berri. “Iran will certainly continue to support all decisions taken by the people, government and resistance in this period.” In a symbolic move, the former air force commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) personally piloted the plane that got him to the Rafic Hariri International Airport as fires and smoke resulting from the latest Israeli attacks could be seen.
