By Staff, Agencies

The new commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps [IRGC] Quds Force said the revenge for Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani is a promise given by God and his martyrdom will be reciprocated by removing the US from the region.

The new commander of the Quds Forces Brigadier General Esmail Ghaani said: “We promise to continue Martyr Soleimani’s path with the same strength and his martyrdom will be reciprocated in several steps by removing the US from the region."

Ghaani added: "The continuance of this movement is to reach the global governance of Imam Mahdi [May God Hasten His Reappearance]. This important goal will be attained under the Supreme Leader.”

“The revenge for Soleimani’s martyrdom is a promise given by God, as the God is the main avenger,” he said.

Lieutenant General Soleimani and the acting commander of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units [PMU] - known as the Hashd al-Shaabi - Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis and their fellow combatants, separately leaving Baghdad airport in two cars, were targeted and assassinated on Friday at the direct order of US President Donald Trump.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution His Eminence Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei commented on Soleimani’s martyrdom saying a harsh and severe revenge is awaiting the criminals.
