Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei led prayers on Thursday (December 28) at the funeral of General Sayyed Razi Mousavi, a senior Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) adviser killed in what Iran said was an Israeli air strike in Syria.
State television said Khamenei paid tribute "to this martyr's tireless struggle and called for his companionship with the guardians of God."
Mousavi was one of the most experienced and effective commanders of the resistance front, said Major General Hossein Salami, chief commander of the Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). An Israeli military spokesperson declined specific comment about Mousavi's death on Monday, but said it took whatever action was necessary to defend the country.
