Gaza - Saba:
A leadership delegation from the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) participated on Saturday in the solemn public ceremony for the martyrs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, who were assassinated by the Zionist enemy forces during their heinous aggression against the Islamic Republic.
In a press statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba) on Sunday, the movement said, "We, in the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), offer our deepest condolences and most sincere sympathies to our brothers in the Islamic Republic of Iran, leadership and people, for the martyrdom of a group of its military leaders and nuclear scientists, who were killed during the recent treacherous Zionist aggression against Iranian territory."
The movement added that these righteous martyrs, along with nearly 600 Iranian civilians, including children and women, who were killed in this aggression, are victims of organized Zionist terrorism that spares no one in the region, as part of a malicious plan to dominate and subjugate them, silence the voice of resistance, and eliminate their vital forces.
As we mourn these heroic martyrs, we affirm that this pure blood will remain a beacon for the battle for freedom and the confrontation of Zionist hegemony over the region, and will hasten the demise of the criminal Zionist enemy.
Among the prominent figures martyred in the crimes of the Zionist regime were:
- Lieutenant General Gholam Ali Rashid Commander of the Holy Prophet Central Headquarters
- Lieutenant General Mohammad Hossein Bagheri, Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces
- Lieutenant General Hossein Salami, Commander-in-Chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
- Major General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force
- Major General Mohammad Kazemi, Commander of the IRGC Intelligence Directorate
- Major General Mohammad Reza Nasser Baghban, Command Representative of the IRGC Intelligence Directorate (Hajj Mohsen)
- Brigadier General Mohammad Saeed Izadi, Commander of the Palestinian Division of the IRGC Quds Force
- Brigadier General Bahnam Shahriari, Commander of the Weapons Transport Unit of the IRGC Quds Force
- Brigadier General Ali Shadmani, Commander of the Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters
Hamas added, "We appreciate the heroism and sacrifices of the Iranian people and armed forces during this heroic battle. We affirm our full confidence in the ability of the Islamic Republic to continue its path toward progress, prosperity, and leadership in various fields, and to support our Palestinian people and their just national cause."
