Tehran: The commander of the central Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters, Major General Ali Abdollahi, vowed that Iran's Armed Forces will avenge the killing of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, warning enemies not to mistake the nation's grief for weakness.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Major General Abdollahi emphasized the persistence of the nation's mourning and wrath, stressing that the path of retribution against the killers of the martyred Leader, as well as the oppressed martyrs of the second and third imposed wars, will continue. He issued a direct warning to hostile powers about any misinterpretation of the public's grief.

Abdollahi remarked that the world's arrogant powers, particularly criminal America and the Zionist regime, should not perceive the nation's tears and sorrow as a sign of weakness. He highlighted the determination of Iran's Armed Forces, supported by Almighty God and in solidarity with Muslim and freedom-seeking peoples, to keep the enemy on edge and eventually exact retribution from those responsible for the terrorist crimes.

In his message, Abdollahi extended condolences to the new Leader, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Hosseini Khamenei, and described the funeral as a historic event. He praised the participation of Iranian people and Muslim nations, particularly Iraq's citizens and Armed Forces, as a testament to Islamic unity that clearly distinguished truth from falsehood and revealed the failed designs of global arrogance.

Abdollahi concluded by stating that the unparalleled turnout by the Islamic ummah was not merely a farewell ceremony but a powerful call for justice and a clear rejection of the plans of the world's arrogant powers, effectively differentiating right from wrong.
