US troops in West Asia awaiting death, Lt. Gen. Soleimani’s daughter says

Daughter of top Iranian Commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani said her late father’s name is still terrifying the US and Zionist regime, warning that families of the American troops in West Asia must await the news of death of their loved ones in retaliation for the blood of her father.

According to Tasnim news agency, in an address during the funeral of her father in Tehran on Monday, Zeinab Soleimani said the iconic general, who was assassinated in a US drone strike in Iraq on January 3, devoted his life to the war against enemies and terrorist groups.

The name of Qassem Soleimani still rattles the nest of Zionism, Takfiris and the hegemony, she added.

She also warned that the families of American troops in West Asia, who have witnessed the US’ humiliation in Syria, Iraq, Palestine and Yemen, will be awaiting the news of death of their children.

She went on to say that the revenge for the assassination of her father could be taken by Secretary-General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Hamas Leader Ismail Haniyeh, Palestinian Islamic Jihad Leader Ziyad al-Nakhalah, or Leader of Yemen's Ansarullah Movement Abdul-Malik Badreddin al-Houthi.

Lieutenant General Soleimani, the deputy head of Iraq’s Hashd al-Sha'abi, and a number of their entourage were martyred in a strike by American drones near Baghdad International Airport in the early hours of Friday.

The White House and the Pentagon confirmed the assassination of Lieutenant General Soleimani in Iraq, saying the attack was carried out at the direction of US President Donald Trump.
