On Friday, Brigadier General Esmail Qaani, the Commander of the IRGC Quds Force, stated that resistance groups throughout the region play a pivotal role in determining the outcome of regional affairs. He added that the resistance in Palestine was the first to initiate operations in its way, IRNA reports.

"Resistance groups gradually built themselves up and have now become the holders of their own decisions and destinies," Brigadier General Qaani said.

He added that Palestinian operations were tailored domestically and meticulously planned for over many years despite enduring the challenges posed by the Israeli regime's oppression.

In his address to the leaders of the Zionist regime, he said: "You assassinated the martyr Razi Mousavi because you could not achieve anything on the Gaza battlefield, and Iran will not be entangled in your schemes. What accomplishments have the Zionist regime and the US achieved since the commencement of the war? Their expertise lies only in the killing of innocent women and children."

Addressing the US, he added, "If you persist with your irrational behavior in Iraq, the Iraqi resistance will set aside its considerations and provide you with another response."

Resistance factions across the MENA region mourned on Monday Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) military advisor, Brigadier General Seyyed Razi Mousavi, who was martyred in an Israeli airstrike on the Syrian capital Damascus.

The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon (Hezbollah) pointed out that the assassination of Seyyed Razi Mousavi constitutes a new crime perpetrated by the Israeli occupation and adds to its record of crimes and aggressions.

Hezbollah extended condolences to the Iranian leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei, as well as to the leadership of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), the family of the martyr, and the entire Iranian population.

In the same context, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement strongly condemned in a statement the cowardly assassination, affirming that the martyr played a fundamental and pivotal role in supporting the resistance forces in the region and standing by the Palestinian people, their resistance, and their cause.

In a separate statement, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) declared that the Israeli assassination of Mousavi is an example of the Zionist entity's aggressive criminal doctrine.

On its part, the Iraqi Kataib Hezbollah considered the martyrdom of Commander Mousavi a treacherous Zionist aggression in Syria, pointing out that the martyr played a significant role in confronting the takfiri forces such as al-Qaeda and ISIS, which wreaked havoc in Iraq and on its people.

Similarly, the al-Nujaba Movement in Iraq said in a statement, "We, the Islamic resistance, have an inevitable revenge to take, and we will only be an opponent and adversary to evil."

Addressing the occupation, the movement said, "Let the enemies of religion and humanity know that their demise is inevitable, no matter how long they persist and conspire."
