The death of Iranian Major General Qassem Soleimani in a U.S. air strike is reverberating around the world. Both American allies and rivals alike are warning of a ‘dangerous escalation’ in a volatile region
- Here are some reactions to the killing of Qassem Soleimani, head of Iran’s elite Quds Force, in a U.S. air strike on his convoy at Baghdad airport.“All enemies should know that the jihad of resistance will continue with a doubled motivation, and a definite victory awaits the fighters in the holy war,” Khamenei said in a statement carried by TV. Iran often refers to regional countries and forces opposed to Israel and the United States as a “resistance” front.
“The brutality and stupidity of American terrorist forces in assassinating Commander Soleimani... will undoubtedly make the tree of resistance in the region and the world more prosperous,” Zarif said in a statement.IRAQI PRIME MINISTER ADEL ABDUL MAHDI The strike also violated the conditions of U.S. military presence in Iraq and should be met with legislation that safeguards Iraq’s security and sovereignty, he added.“The vicious attack on Baghdad international airport last night is an insolent breach of Iraqi sovereignty and international agreements. It led to the killing of several commanders who defeated Islamic State terrorists,” Sistani’s office said in a statement.
“As the patron of the patriotic Iraqi resistance I give the order for all mujahideen, especially the Mehdi Army, Promised Day Brigade, and all patriotic and disciplined groups to be ready to protect Iraq,” he said in a statement.“Iraqis — Iraqis — dancing in the street for freedom; thankful that General Soleimani is no more.”“Tonight’s airstrike risks provoking further dangerous escalation of violence. America – and the world – cannot afford to have tensions escalate to the point of no return.
