Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – December 15, 1983

I worked in my office until eight in the morning. I got the reports about the rocket-hit cities of Andimeshk, Dezful, Behbahan and Ramhormoz and the bombing of Nahavand; We have had more than 30 martyrs and around 300 injured and dozens of houses and shops destroyed. Before the order, I talked about this and the Kuwait bombings. I warned Kuwait to denounce Saddam's actions and to tell the truth honestly and not to let the truth end in their name.

The agenda of the meeting was the public service plan. I entrusted a part of the meeting to Mr. Yazdi and came to my office. I did the backlog until noon. Around noon, Mr. Namazi and the head of the Najaf Abad army came; They complained about Mr. Montazeri's office and himself for unnecessarily supporting the clerics and defaming the IRGC.

In the evening, the student branches of the [Islamic Republic] party came. On the occasion of the week of unity and connection between the campus and the university, I spoke for them in detail.
