Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the Iranian Resistance, strongly condemned targeting Mecca with rockets that was carried out on October 29 from inside Yemen, under the Quds Force supervision, and upon the orders of Khamenei. She described this aggression as declaration of war to all Muslims around the world. She demanded expulsion of this anti-human and anti-Islamic regime from the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), and asked the Islamic states to cut off their relations with this regime.

"Even earlier the mullahs' regime spared no effort to conduct crimes and desecration of Mecca and the sacred House of God. Among others were sending explosives to Saudi in 1986, and causing riot and chaos in Mecca in 1987 that took the lives of more than 400 pilgrims. This is the very same regime that did not even hesitate to explode the shrines of Shiite Imams in Mashhad and Samarra in a bid to maintain its infamous reign," added Mrs. Rajavi.

The Iranian Resistance had earlier disclosed sending arms shipments by the mullahs' regime to Yemen. For example, on 1 September 2015 the NCRI announced sending various types of weapons to Yemen by the IRGC. On 27 October 2016, the US authorities confirmed that the US and its allies had already confiscated five arms shipments from Iran to Yemen by ships.
As the Iranian Resistance has announced times and again, firmness before the mullahs' regime and expulsion of the IRGC and the Quds Force and their mercenaries and agents from the region is the only solution to the region's crisis.
