As the death anniversary of top Iranian commander Major General Qassem Soleimani approaches, Iran has reiterated its vow to avenge his death. ‘We faced a great sorrow and pain in the early days of the year, the martyrdom of our great general (Qassem Soleimani) in a brutal assassination by American officials, mainly the President of the United States and his Secretary of State.
