During the rally for International al-Quds Day in Tehran, Iran, a procession was held for the Iranian martyrs assassinated by "Israel" in Damascus, Syria. 

The IRGC mourned the commander of the Quds Force in Lebanon and Syria, General Mohammad Reza Zahedi, and Brigadier General Mohammad-Hadi Haji-Rahimi, as well as IRGC officers Hossein Amanollahi, Seyyed Mehdi Jalalati, Mohsen Sadaghat, Ali Agha Babaei, and Seyyed Ali Salehi Rouzbahani.

Mourners attended the funeral and chanted slogans against the Israeli occupation and its most loyal ally, the United States. 

Simultaneously, the commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami vowed that Iran will punish "Israel" for its crime.

"The Zionist regime is like a dagger that the satanic British regime stabbed the body of the Islamic nation with 75 years ago," Salami said, adding that should the United States and Western nations halt their support for "Israel", the occupation would crumble rapidly and very soon. 

On the massacres "Israel" has been committing against Muslims, Salami said the entity's goal to strengthen its position is but an illusion.

The IRGC Commander also maintained that Gaza confirmed its resilience against the Israeli occupation and that the Palestinian Resistance called for an unyielding stance as the fight is still ongoing. "They [Gaza Resistance groups] say, be firm, we will bury the regime in Gaza."

Salami threatened the Israeli occupation with "Muslim fire" due to its easy accessibility and said that its future ends with its inevitable surrender.

'Israel' to receive slap in face for consulate attack: Sayyed Khamenei

Iran repatriated the bodies of its martyrs on Wednesday, and a ceremony was held in their memory on Thursday, during which the leader of the Islamic Revolution Sayyed Ali Khamenei led the prayers. 

On Tuesday, Sayyed Ali Khamenei said that the Israeli occupation will not be able to avoid its defeat by resorting to "desperate acts" like the airstrike it carried out on the Iranian consulate in Syria.

The leader emphasized that the Zionist regime will eventually "come close to collapse and dissolution. Desperate attempts like the actions the regime committed in Syria will not save them from defeat," vowing that they will certainly "be slapped for these acts."

He further affirmed, "Our courageous men will exact punishment upon the evil regime. We will ensure they regret this and other crimes, with the will of God."

This comes after Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi called the Israeli aggression against the Iranian consulate in Syria's Damascus, a "new terrorist crime" and considered it a "violation of international resolutions."

Raisi also stressed that "the Zionists must know that they will not achieve their goals," reaffirming that the "crime of attacking the consulate in Damascus will not go unanswered."

The evil Zionist regime will be punished by our courageous men.
