Message of Condolences in Response to the Terrorist Explosion during the commemoration ceremony of the martyrdom of General Soleimani

According to the Center for Communications and International Relations, following the terrorist explosion during the commemoration ceremony of the martyrdom of General Soleimani and the martyrdom of a number of our compatriots, the National Defense University issued a message of condolences as follows.

"In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Among the Believers are men Who have been true to Their covenant with Allah: Of them some have died, and some (still) wait: But they have never changed (Their determination) in the least:

Surah al- Ahzab verse 23

In commemoration of the martyrdom anniversary of the revered Commander, Haj Qasem Soleimani, the global arrogance and enemies of the sacred system of the Islamic Republic of Iran have once again stained their hands with the blood of innocent people who had come to Kerman to visit the beloved Commander's resting place. In a terrorist explosion, they ruthlessly took the lives of innocent people, including children, women, and men, who had gathered to pay their respects to the revered Commander, fell victim to a terrorist explosion orchestrated by these nefarious forces. Undoubtedly, such malicious and oppressive acts reflect the treacherous nature and desperation of the enemy in the face of the resolute confrontation by the proud children of the nation. Furthermore, the university extends its sympathies to the families of the victims who have suffered immeasurable loss due to this nefarious and terrorist attack. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the martyr-nurturing nation of Iran for this heartbreaking tragedy and beseech patience and perseverance from the Almighty for the bereaved families affected by this heinous and terrorist attack.
