Zeinab Soleimani, the daughter of
the slain Iranian army chief, Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani, has vowed that her
father’s death must be retaliated.
Zainab told the crowd at her
father’s funeral procession in Tehran that the US and Israel faced a “dark day”
for his death.
The airstrike, which was an order
from US President Donald Trump, killed Maj. Gen. Soleimani and his deputy in
Baghdad, the Iragi capital on Friday.
The death of Soleimani has
inflamed tensions in the Middle East resulting in a series of war threats from
both America and Iran with the Middle East country’s latest threat to retaliate
the assassination of their general.
Trump’s threat came after Iran
earlier said it had identified 32 US sites to strike in retaliation for the
killing of Soleimani.
Multiple rockets were also on
Sunday launched near the US embassy in Baghdad Iraq
The move by the US has drawn
condemnation from leaders and officials who fear that tensions in the region
could escalate drastically.
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali
Hosseini Khamenei had also warned that “a harsh retaliation is waiting.”
Zainab Soleimani said, “Crazy
Trump, don’t think that everything is over with my father’s martyrdom,” she
said in an address broadcast on state television.
