Speaking at the National Forum for honoring Mujahideen, which included “jihadist figures from Bahrain and Yemen,” according to Iran’s Al-Alam news, the IRGC commander claimed that Iran had emerged victorious from recent conflicts in the Middle East. “The Zionists know that today any war they start will lead to their being erased.
