TEHRAN, Jun. 23 (MNA) – Millions of people are taking to the streets across Iran and other world countries on the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan to show their solidarity with the Palestinians and condemn Israel’s decades-long occupation and atrocities.

Hundreds of thousands of people convened at Enghelab Square in Tehran, at around 10:00 a.m., half an hour before the official start of the Quds Day rally.

The event officially kicked off at 10:30 with the mass of people on streets chanting 'Down with Israel.' The people demonstrated their hate toward Israel and its allies like the US and the UK.

Ali Larijani, the Speaker of Iran’s Parliament, and the Spokesman for Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Ramezan Sharif are slated to address the rally later.

Two Iranian missiles of Zolfaghar and Ghadr are staged at Valiasr Crossroads in Tehran. The missiles are owned and operated by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

On Sunday, the IRGC launched 6 of its missiles from the western provinces of Kermanshah and Kurdistan hitting targets in Syria where the terrorists of ISIL were convened.
