Iran Vows Retaliation: Deadly Blasts Erupt at Soleimani Commemoration | Oneindia News

In the aftermath of explosions at a ceremony commemorating Qassem Soleimani, Iran's Revolutionary Guards and First Vice President Mohammad Mokhber vowed strong retaliation.

The attack killed nearly 100 people, marking the bloodiest incident since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

No group claimed responsibility, but a U.S. official suggested it resembled past terrorist acts by ISIS.

Iran's Guards condemned the attack as a cowardly act aimed at creating insecurity.

President Ebrahim Raisi called it a heinous crime, and Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei pledged revenge.

Soleimani's 2020 assassination by a U.S. drone heightened tensions between the U.S. and Iran, bringing them close to full-blown conflict.
