Iran has not forgotten General Qasem Soleimani, who was killed by a US drone strike. Tehran has created a new ballistic missile and named it in his honor.

Iran’s armed forces have presented two new missiles – a surface-to-surface ballistic missile and a cruise missile.

The ballistic missile is called “The Martyr Hajj Qasem” in honor of General Qasem Soleimani, who was killed in a US drone strike on 3 January 2020 at Baghdad International Airport.

The cruise missile was named after Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, the leader of the Hashd al-Shaabi Shiite forces, who was killed together with Soleimani.

The drone strike was authorized by US President Donald Trump as Washington maintained that Soleimani and Al-Muhandis were both involved in the attack on the US embassy in Baghdad on 31 December 2019.

Soon those new missiles will visit the ones that ordered the assassinations of the Iranian top commanders.
