SAEDNEWS: A poignant video capturing Iran’s senior official Mohammad Mokhber tearfully embracing the son of slain commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh has gone viral, offering a rare glimpse into the emotional aftermath of a war hero’s legacy.
According to Saed News, a widely circulated video shows Mohammad Mokhber—senior advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader—embracing the young son of the late Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh in a deeply emotional exchange that moved onlookers to tears.
The brief but powerful footage, filmed during a commemorative event, shows Mokhber visibly overwhelmed as he holds the child of the martyred commander in his arms. Mokhber, who previously served as First Vice President and is now a top aide in strategic affairs, was seen wiping away tears, visibly shaken by the memory of a man whose name, according to Iranian sources, “struck fear into the hearts of Israelis.”
General Hajizadeh, the long-time head of the IRGC’s Aerospace Force, was recently killed in an Israeli strike amid heightened hostilities in the region. His death has sparked both public mourning and fierce national pride, with many officials lauding his pivotal role in advancing Iran’s missile defense and strategic deterrence capabilities.
While the political ramifications of his death continue to unfold, moments like this—human, unguarded, and emotionally raw—underscore the depth of personal loss woven through Iran’s broader national narrative. The video has resonated widely across Iranian social media, becoming a symbol of unity, grief, and resistance.
