Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced on Sunday the deaths of seven of its commanders, who were killed alongside the Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force, Brigadier General Amir Hajizadeh, following an Israeli attack on Friday morning.
This was reported by the state-affiliated Mehr news agency.
“Regarding the unjust and honorable martyrdom of a group of prominent commanders in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Aerospace Force – comrades of the martyred Major General Amir Ali Hajizadeh – among the senior martyred generals, namely: (Mahmoud Baqeri, Davoud Sheikhiyan, Mohammad Baqer Taherpour, Mansour Safarpoor, Masoud Tayeb, Khosrow Hassani, and Javad Jarsoara),” the statement reads.
“Although the martyrdom of these righteous commanders has left a deep wound in the hearts of the Iranian people and armed forces, their pure blood will, without a doubt, not only strengthen the deeply rooted tree of the Islamic Revolution but also increase the resolve of the great Iranian people and its revolutionary sons to confront global Zionism and its malicious and criminal supporters.”
Israel launched a widespread attack on Iran last Friday morning, utilizing dozens of fighter jets in an operation it named “Rising Lion.”
During this offensive, Israeli forces bombed nuclear facilities and missile bases in various regions and assassinated prominent military commanders and nuclear scientists.
The Israeli army confirmed that the attack was “preemptive” and conducted under political directives.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that the “unprecedented” operation aimed to “strike Iran’s nuclear infrastructure, ballistic missile factories, and numerous other military capabilities.”
