Delvari national hero of resistance against colonialism

TEHRAN, Sep. 03 (MNA) – Iran's Embassy in London in a message on the occasion of the anniversary of the martyrdom of Rais Ali Delvari described this national hero a symbol of Iranians' sense of resistance against colonialism.

"Today, Iran commemorates Rais Ali Delvari, a prominent figure in its history, hailed as a national hero for his resistance against British colonial forces in the early 20th century. His defiance has made him a lasting symbol of Iranian patriotism and the fight against colonialism," Iranian embassy wrote on its X account on Monday.

"Were he alive today, it’s conceivable that some British authorities might label him a terrorist for his opposition to their occupation!!" it added.

Rais Ali Delvari was an Iranian independent fighter and anti-British colonialism activist.

He is remembered as a national hero in Iran who organized popular resistance against the British troops who had invaded Iran in 1915.
