SAEDNEWS: A senior commander from the Iranian Armed Forces has vowed that Iran will respond harshly to Israel for the martyrdom of Ismail Haniyeh, though the timing of this response remains uncertain.
According to SAEDNEWS, Brigadier General Ali Abdollahi, Deputy Commander of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, made these comments during a memorial for martyrs. He reflected on Iran’s past struggles, stating, "During the eight years of Sacred Defense, the enemy fought against Iran with all its might. And at the end of the war, Iran had prisoners of war from several countries."
Abdollahi emphasized that hostility from the enemy has continued even after the war ended. "The enemy's animosity did not end even after the imposed war and it never stopped its enmity. The enemy used all means against Iran," he explained.
He also condemned the actions of the Israeli regime against the Palestinian people and criticized Western nations for their indifference to these issues. He noted that recent Israeli actions have revealed the true nature of what he called the "world's mercenaries."
"In response to the martyrdom of Iranian guest Ismail Haniyeh, Iran will give a harsh response to the enemy," Abdollahi stated. He added that while the exact timing is unknown, he believes Israel's hopes that Iran will not retaliate are unrealistic.
