Tehran: Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) announced that its senior military advisor Kioumars Pourhashemi has been martyred in Syria. Brigadier General Kioumars Pour Hashemi, known as Haji Hashem, was martyred in Aleppo late on Wednesday, the IRGC said in a statement on Thursday.
According to Islamic Republic News Agency, the Iranian military advisor lost his life in an attack by Zionist terrorists on the suburbs of Aleppo. The statement from the IRGC highlighted that since the Zionists had failed to achieve their objectives in wars against Gazans and the Lebanese, the regime has resorted to waging war against Syrians.
The IRGC’s statement further mentioned that details regarding the funeral procession of the martyred advisor will be announced later.
