IRGC Commander Vows ‘Harsher Revenge’ to Come in Near Future Over US Assassination of Soleimani

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Commander Abdollah Araghi has warned that Iran will take a “harsher revenge” in the near future in response to the US missile strike that killed IRGC general and Quds Force commander, Qasem Soleimani, on 3 January, Tasnim News Agency reported.

His statement comes after Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Mohammad Bagheri warned Washington that any future attacks by the US will be met with a “stronger, more crushing, and broader” response from the Islamic Republic than the one it gave on 8 January.

The Iranian missile attack that caused damage to US military facilities in Erbil and the Ayn al-Asad Air Base in Iraq, but resulted in no casualties, was called a “slap” in Washington’s face by Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei. On the same day, a statement by the country’s Army warned that if the US repeats “its crimes”, the “slap” will turn into a “fist”.
