According to Kurdpress, Mssoud Pezeshkian wrote in a tweet in Persian and Arabic on his X social network account: "The Muslim people of Iraq bravely stood by Iran in this unjust war; this resistance is not due to the constraints of geography but because of shared history, identity, and religious values."

"I warmly shake the hands of the Iraqi people, officials, and fighters of Iraq. I appreciate your steadfastness and honor our commitment."
