IRGC announces spokesman’s martyrdom in terrorist US-Israeli strikes

Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has announced the martyrdom of its spokesman Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini, in terrorist US-Israeli strikes.

In a statement released on Friday, the IRGC expressed condolences and congratulations to Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, the Iranian people, military commanders, and media personnel over the martyrdom of Naeini in a “cowardly” crime by the aggressor regimes on the dawn of the last day of the holy month of Ramadan.

It said that Naeini’s “conscientiously” services over the past four decades in the IRGC, especially during the 1980s’ Iraqi-imposed war and Iran’s retaliatory True Promise operations, turned him into a prominent figure in the history of sacrifice and jihad (endeavor for the sake of God).

“His evolutionary viewpoints and efficient patterns in the field of ‘soft war’ will guide the IRGC forces and officers of the cognitive war in their fight against arrogant powers,” it added.

IRGC also vowed to continue the “hopeful and rigid” path of the brave and faithful commander in its battle against criminals.

The IRGC further pledged not to allow any disruption in the popular force’s soft and spiritual power and the fading of its glorious sound in the hearts of the faithful.

Naeini was the spokesperson for the IRGC over the past two years. He also served as the deputy for the IRGC’s Public Relations Department.

The criminal US-Israeli aggression on Iran began on February 28 with airstrikes that assassinated senior Iranian officials and commanders.

The Iranian Armed Forces have responded by launching almost daily missile and drone operations targeting locations in the Israeli-occupied lands as well as US military bases and assets across the region.

They have conducted their retaliatory strikes based on the principle of "eye for an eye,” inflicting heavy losses on the enemies.
