IRGC to Israel: Await our revenge for commander’s assassination
Hamas’ Al-Aqsa Storm a revenge for Soleimani’
Sharif further noted that the martyrdom of Mousavi is a great loss but stressed that Iran will continue the path of resistance with strength.
The IRGC’s spokesman also noted that one of the main reasons that the Israeli regime assassinated Mousavi at this point was due to its failure on October 7, when Palestinian resistance movements launched the surprise attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, into the occupied territories.
He also said Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the Israel regime was one of the acts of revenge for the assassination of Lieutenant General Soleimani, warning that these acts of revenge will continue.
The Israeli regime has for years targeted what it calls Iran-linked positions in Syria.
Sharif said Mousavi had a good experience in equipping the resistance and confronting Israelis, adding that he played a vital role along with the resistance front in the fight against the Daesh Takfirit terrorist group in Syria.
The IRGC’s spokesman continued that Iran’s response to the assassination of Mousavi will be a combination of direct action and the resistance front, pointing out that the number of Israel’s casualties following Operation Al-Aqsa Storm is a sign of the regime’s decline.
Israel is under immense pressure, he said, which is the reason why the occupying regime is seeking to expand the scope of the ongoing war in the Gaza Strip and attack other countries as well.
Sharif noted that Iran will continue to confront the Israeli regime as it did after the assassination of its nuclear scientists.
Iran maintains an advisory mission in Syria at the request of Damascus with the aim of helping the war-torn Arab country get rid of the foreign-backed militants who have been fighting the democratically-elected Syrian government since 2011.
Earlier in December, Israel killed two IRGC military advisors — Mohammad Ali Ataee Shoorcheh and Panah Taqizadeh — in an attack in Syria.
The IRGC announced in a statement that the two officers were martyred against the backdrop of the relentless savagery of the “fake and child-killing” Israeli regime in Gaza.
