Iranian Activist Vahid Beheshti To Appear At Israeli Knesset

Beheshti, an independent journalist and Iranian human rights activist based in London, recently concluded a 72-day hunger strike, followed by a sit-in last month. His protest aimed to persuade the British government to designate Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps as a terrorist organization, serving also as a demonstration against the regime.

Participating as a speaker in the Knesset Israel Victory Caucus (KIVC), Beheshti will explore the question of what Israel's victory will resemble at the conclusion of the war, the Israel Victory Project announced in a press statement released on Monday. The conference, led by MK Ohad Tal of the Religious Zionist Party and Yifat Shasha-Biton of National Unity in collaboration with the Israel Victory Project, will bring together members from both the coalition and the opposition.

The Israel Victory Project, which seeks to guide US and Israeli policy towards supporting an Israeli victory over the Palestinians to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict, underlines its mission to safeguard Western values from "Middle Eastern threats."

Beheshti's visit aims to convey support for Israel on behalf of the Iranian people and advocate for the Jewish state to shift its attention to the Iranian regime rather than just its proxy arms, including terror organizations like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.

The visit follows last year's historic visit of exiled Prince Reza Pahlavi who visited Israel to show support to the Jewish state.
