General Soleimani: The commander of hearts

A year has passed since Iran’s top Lt. General Qassem Soleimani was assassinated by the US.

To Iranians, he was an anti-terror icon who played a key role in maintaining security in their country. But his popularity among Iranians goes beyond a charismatic commander who defeated the Daesh terror group. Soleimani is also highly appreciated for his selflessness and modesty. That explains why people referred to him as "the commander of hearts."
