Memoirs of Akbar Hashemi – January 29, 1986

Together with the commanders of the army and the army, we reached the service of the Imam. I spoke and announced the readiness to start the attack and asked them to give guidance and advice. He spoke especially well about the sincere cooperation of the IRGC and the Imam's army. It was decided not to announce the meeting, because the enemy will use it to get information about the operation. I asked the imam to accept the request to meet Mr. Seyyed Ali Mohammad Dastghib; They are worried that there will be a difference in Shiraz.

Ahmad Agha also came to the parliament with me. The meeting of Khatam al-Anbia camp was held and continued from ten o'clock to four o'clock in the afternoon. We discussed the coordination of operational axes, the IRGC and the army, logistics, the start time of the attack and other things, it was good. At four o'clock I participated in the meeting of the board of directors and we decided the schedule of one week off during Fajr and the time of the implementation of the budget bill of the whole country.

At half past four, we left for Qom to participate in the Wednesday night meeting of the heads of forces in the presence of Ayatollah Montazeri. They all came and we listened more to Mr. Montazeri's content. He had criticisms and suggestions about the state of distribution and economy in general and the performance of the judiciary and war, which are a mixture of right and wrong. We decided to discuss each one in the next meetings. They are doing well and they complained to the management council of the area. We ate Chalukbob for dinner and left for Tehran at 10:30 PM. I reached the parliament at twelve o'clock. I was tired and fell asleep immediately.
