Tehran: A group of commanders and staff of the Iranian Army's Air Force and Air Defense Force will meet with the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, they will meet Ayatollah Khamenei in Tehran on Friday, coinciding with the anniversary of Homafaran Allegiance. This occasion marks February 8, 1979, when the Pahlavi regime's air force staff, known as Homafaran, pledged allegiance to the late founder of the Islamic Republic, Imam Khomeini.

This year, the anniversary of Homafaran Allegiance falls on February 7, which also marks the eighth day of the Ten-Day Dawn Celebrations. These celebrations commemorate the victory of Iran's Islamic Revolution, which led to the toppling of the former Western-backed Pahlavi regime in 1979.
