Khamenei, who tweeted this morning in Parsi language, is one of our most prolific and effective military martyrs in the US military offensive. We will not let their sacrifice go to waste. We will answer the criminals who have washed their blood through bloodshed.
He announced a three-day mourning in Iran in the wake of Soleimani’s assassination.
Iranian Foreign Affairs Minister Magam Javed Jarosh has condemned the assassination of the head of the Quds army, causing a very dangerous provocation. That said, our warriors will certainly take revenge against the American forces.
