JERUSALEM, Israel – Threats of revenge are echoing from Iran after twin blasts at a memorial ceremony there on Wednesday. It occurred a day after the assassination of a senior Hamas terrorist leader in Lebanon.
Iran blamed Israel and the U.S. for the two explosions that killed more than 100 people at a service commemorating Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force Commander Qassam Soleimani, who was killed four years ago in a U.S. drone strike. The IRGC-Quds Force is a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization, and Soleimani was its mastermind.
In front of a crowd shouting "death to America" and "death to Israel," Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi called the bombings a "barbaric act" against innocent people. He continued, "I warn the Zionist regime: without doubt, for this crime and the other crimes you commit, you will pay a price that will make you regret badly."
