Iran’s Quds Force Commander Esmail Ghaani made the firm statement on Saturday.
“We recommend that the Zionists go back and buy back their homes which they sold in Europe and America when they move to the occupied territories before they become more expensive,” Ghaani was quoted as saying by the semi-official news agency. Fars.

Ghaani said the Palestinian militant group Hamas could have targeted “many” infrastructure facilities in Israel during the conflict earlier this month, but Hamas did not do so because “it won’t be long before the Palestinians use them.”
He also said the thousands of rockets fired from Gaza at Israel during the conflict were all locally made.
“Palestine should think about managing all of Palestine and the Zionist regime should think about leaving this land,” said Ghaani.
Israel and Hamas reached a ceasefire on May 21 that ended 11 days of fighting.
Iran, which does not recognize Israel, is a major supporter of Hamas.
