SAEDNEWS: A senior adviser to the IRGC says Iran’s enemies will never succeed in bringing the nation to its knees, emphasizing national resilience and the unwavering pursuit of the goals of the Islamic Revolution.
“Enemies will take the illusion of subduing the Iranian nation to their graves,” said Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi, former defense minister and current adviser to the IRGC commander-in-chief.
He made the remarks on Sunday during the funeral ceremony of Lieutenant General Hossein Salami, the late IRGC commander-in-chief, who was assassinated in a recent Israeli airstrike.
Vahidi told reporters, “Iran—strong, honorable, and powerful—will continue along the glorious path of the Islamic Revolution.”
He added that the assassination of Salami and other senior commanders “will not weaken the nation’s resolve, but will instead strengthen our determination to pursue the revolution’s path and defend Islamic ideals.”
While the Zionist regime waged a war of aggression against Iran on June 13 and struck Iran’s military, nuclear, and residential areas for 12 days, the US stepped in and conducted military attacks on three nuclear sites in Iran’s Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan on June 22.
The Iranian military forces conducted powerful counterattacks immediately after the aggression. The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force carried out 22 waves of retaliatory missile strikes against the Zionist regime as part of Operation True Promise III, which inflicted heavy losses on cities across the occupied territories.
Also, in response to the US attacks, Iranian armed forces launched a wave of missiles at al-Udeid air base in Qatar, the largest American military base in West Asia.
A ceasefire that came into force on June 24 brought the fighting to a halt.
