First, Mr. [Brigadier Mansour] Sattari [Army Air Force Commander] informed that a Kuwaiti plane was hijacked and landed in Mashhad. I told them to keep it until we determine the assignment. I spoke with the president, prime minister and foreign ministry; The policy was decided to announce that we are not willing to accept them, unless Kuwait asks us to and we prefer that they leave Iran so that the Halabja issue is not overshadowed. We also sent a group to Mashhad to control the issue.
In the evening, I went to Saadabad barracks. Basij country officials had a meeting. I listened to the work report and plans and talked to them about the importance of sending troops at this point. From there I went to the parliament. I saw the reports.
Two Iraqi missiles hit Tehran this evening and left 90 dead and several injured. I ordered to reciprocate.
Mr. [Khosro] Arouj called from Mashhad that he went inside the hijacked Kuwaiti plane and saw the hijackers determined to carry out their threats if their demands were not heeded. [Mr. Alireza Moiri] the [Political] Deputy Prime Minister insists that the incident must be ended by midnight. He asked me for help to solve the problem; Especially considering that three relatives of the Emir of Kuwait are on the plane, the hope of the hijackers has increased.
I went to Mr. Khamenei's office to participate in the Expediency Council meeting. After a lot of discussion, finally the vote was given to approve the Parliament's resolution and subsequent interpretations of the Parliament regarding Article 9 of the Urban Land Law, and the problem that was in the way of the Ministry of Housing for years was removed.
After the meeting of the Expediency Council, a meeting of the heads of forces was held and the Kuwaiti plane was discussed. The Kuwaitis have withdrawn and are ready to negotiate with the kidnappers. It was communicated to Mashhad to try to release the ordinary and unimportant passengers, especially the women, and not to allow anything to happen and not allow them to board the plane.
