Women, girls pioneers of resistance behind frontlines of war

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei has said that women and girls of the country are the pioneers of the resistance behind the frontlines of war imposed against the country.

In a message issued on Friday on the occasion of the National Day of Nurses, which marks the birth anniversary of Hazrat Zainab (SA), the daughter of Imam Ali (AS) and the granddaughter of the Prophet [PBUH], the Leader instructed health officials of the country to pay due attention to the health community in order to promote healthcare issues in the country.

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution described the role of women and girls of the Islamic Iran during this unparalleled era of the Iranian nation’s resurgence as truly remarkable, highlighting the revitalizing and hope-inspiring role of nurses as well as their significant impact on the physical and mental health and security of society.

“Today, the Zainab-like women of Islamic Iran, through their strong presence in various arenas, particularly in city and village squares, are at the forefront of practical advocacy and resistance behind the front lines of hard warfare,” Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei stated.

The Leader added that the powers of the time, which seek to inflict suffering, pain and repression on the Iranian nation, do not consider themselves capable of confronting this vast force.
