IRGC commander vows to harshly ‘avenge martyr Qassem Soleimani’
BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:20 P.M.) – The Commander-in-Chief of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Major General Hossein Salami, vowed on Thursday, to “avenge the blood of the martyr of Quds Force commander, Major-General Qassem Soleimani, sooner or later,” stressing that “revenge will definitely be harsh.”
Quoted by the Tasnim News Agency, Salami said during a meeting that included senior leaders and officials of the Quds Force, that “by assassinating Qassem Soleimani, the enemies (the United States) created for themselves a source of constant danger and revenge, and that his martyrdom also doubled the jihadist power among the youth of the Islamic world.”
He continued directing his speech to the United States: “Our enemies must know that there is no safe place for them,” stressing that the banner he raised and the beacon illuminated by Soleimani will not fall to the ground.
