Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi has hailed the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC)’s retaliatory attack on the Israeli-occupied territories, saying the hybrid operation taught the occupying regime an unforgettable lesson.

In a statement on Sunday, Raeisi said that the drone and missile strike turned a new chapter in the history of Iran’s authority and materialized the sincere promise of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei to punish the aggressor.

“Last night, your zealous and courageous children in the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps, with the cooperation and coordination of all the defense and political sectors of the country, turned a new page in the history of Iran’s authority and taught a lesson to the Zionist enemy,” he said, addressing the nation.
