The spokesperson of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), Brigadier General Ramadan Sharif, said the Israeli occupation is trying to get its revenge for Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, during which it suffered a great failure, by targeting and assassinating IRGC commanders, but affirmed that "Israel" will be suffering greater blows. 

In a statement mourning the recent assassination of seven of the IRGC's commanders and officers, Sharif said, "Their martyrdom only fuels our strive and will to confront the Zionists".

"The Zionists are humanity's enemies, and today, Jews oppose this mischievous entity," noting that the global population is calling for the end of Israeli aggression against Gaza and Palestine. 

Brigadier General Sharif commended Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movements for their brave defense of the Palestinian cause, adding that they achieved significant accomplishments over the past six months, while "the Zionists proceeded with their monstrous, reckless tactics for six months, but have not achieved any of their objectives."

He revealed that the funerals of the IRGC martyrs will be held on al-Quds Day on the last Friday of Ramadan, in Tehran, Iran. 

Also on Friday, all Iranian cities will mobilize in marches for World al-Quds Day, as 2,000 starting points have been set up. The commander-in-chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Hossein Salami, will also be giving a speech on the occasion.

It condemned on Monday evening the Israeli aggression that targeted the Iranian consulate in the Syrian capital Damascus, pointing out that the crime came after "Israel's" irreversible defeats and the resilience of the people of the Gaza Strip.

The IRGC stressed that the Israeli occupation failed against the strong will of the fighters of the Resistance front in the region.

The statement conveyed condolences to Iranian leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei for the martyrdom of the senior Iranian military advisors, who were veterans of the Islamic Revolution.

In a related context, Iranians took to the streets to express their rejection of the latest aggression on Damascus.

Thousands staged a protest in Palestine Square in Tehran condemning the aggression, demanding an "immediate response to this heinous crime" and expressing support for the Palestinian people.
