No Anti-Iran Action to Go Unanswered: IRGC Chief


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps warned the Israeli regime that it will certainly receive a response for the recent strike on Iran’s diplomatic mission in Damascus.

Addressing demonstrators attending the International Quds Day rally in Tehran on Friday, Major General Hossein Salami vowed revenge for the Israeli attack on the consular section of Iran’s embassy in Syria that resulted in the martyrdom of seven Iranian military advisers.

“We warn that not a single action from any enemy against our sacred establishment will remain unanswered,” the IRGC commander said.

He noted that the Iranian nation has mastered the art of defeating the power of empires and proving victory for the truth of faith.

Echoing remarks made by Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the general said the Iranian forces will punish the Zionist regime.

Condemning the Zionist regime’s brutal atrocities in Gaza and hailing the resistance forces for bringing Israel to its knees in Palestine, Major General Salami said the fall of the rootless Zionist regime is imminent.

He also scorned the US government for the lack of political wisdom and incurring heavy political and economic costs to support a doomed regime.

The commander added that the US is saving the Zionist regime and extending its existence with artificial respiration, but Israel’s vegetative state will end as soon as the US draws back its supports.

“There is no way to save the Zionists. The Zionists cannot choose between war and life. Their option is to surrender,” he stated.

The Quds Days demonstrators in Tehran attended the funeral of the seven IRGC forces martyred in the airstrike that the Zionist regime launched on the consular section of the Iranian embassy in Damascus on Monday.

In a message on Tuesday, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei said the Islamic Republic will make the Zionist regime regret this crime.
