Iranian Supreme Leader’s top advisor for military affairs Major
General Yahya Rahim has downplayed the current tension between Turkey
and Israel, characterizing it as a political gesture.

“Turkey’s gestures against the Zionists are political and they [the
Turks] have maintained their relations [with the Zionist regime]
behind the scene,” he said on Monday, according to the Iranian news
agency Fars.
