Major General Rahim Safavi, Iranian Adviser for Military Affairs, said that thousands of Hezbollah terrorists have been killed in Syria and their number exceeds the number of Iranians killed there, while leaked posthumous statements of the Iranian Major General Hussein Hamdani, who was killed last year, described Assad as a soldier serving Khamenei.
Al-Safavi said that Major General Hussein Hamadani, who was killed in Syria, formed a popular fighting force of 20,000 militants to fight opposition fighters.
This statement comes one day after 7 Hezbollah terrorists were declared dead in Aleppo battles, where Hezbollah fights in support of Assad regime against opposition fighters.
In a similar context, al-Safavi confirmed that the Iranian Major General Qasem Suleimani was the one who suggested forming the Iraqi militia Popular Mobilization Forces to the Iraqi Prime Minister al-Abadi to “fight ISIS” because the regular army cannot.
Iranian media outlets revealed posthumous statements, which were made public for the first time and were ascribed to Hamadani, who was killed in Aleppo in October 2015 in Aleppo, which justify the Iranian intervention in Syria.
Hamadani was reported to have said, in the context of justifying Iran’s Assad support, “Notice the letter which Bashar Assad sent to Khamenei. In the letter, he seems like a soldier who is addressing his military commander. How do you want us to not stand by Assad and support his regime?”
These statements, which were given by General Hamadani in a clandestine meeting with military and political Iranian leaderships, where they discussed the reason which made Iran intervene militarily in Syria, and responded to reformists who criticize this intervention. The statement was later leaked to most of the Iranian media outlets, including the state-owned newspaper Jaam-e Jam. (Source: Orient Net)
