The chief commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has celebrated the recent ceasefire between Lebanon and ‘Israel’ as a strategic and humiliating defeat for the occupying regime.
Major General Hossein Salami, in a message to Hezbollah Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem, congratulated Lebanon and its Hezbollah resistance movement for successfully imposing the ceasefire on Israel. Salami described the truce as a major setback for the Zionist regime, which he said failed to achieve any of its “evil goals and ambitions” in the conflict with Hezbollah.

The IRGC chief noted that Israel’s acceptance of the ceasefire, while under a barrage of Hezbollah missiles targeting its bases and strategic sites, held important lessons for Tel Aviv and its supporters. He emphasized that the “usurping entity is on the decline” and the crimes it has committed in Gaza and Lebanon will only serve to strengthen the resistance.
Salami further stated that Hezbollah’s victory, secured through the “pure blood of martyrs, the patience and resilience of the Lebanese people, and the unwavering courage and sacrifices of the youth,” represents a significant development in the Islamic Ummah’s struggle against Zionists in the region.
“Undoubtedly, this great victory, which was secured thanks to the pure blood of martyrs, the patience and resilience of the Lebanese people, and the unwavering courage and sacrifices of the youth and Hezbollah, is considered a major development in the history of the Islamic Ummah’s struggle against Zionists in West Asia.”
