Salami added that Soleimani united the Muslim world and thwarted US plots to create a new Middle East.
He went on to say that Commander Soleimani was an angel of salvation, and wherever there was an oppressed, Haj Qasem and his forces were there fighting and protecting the people.
Salami also referred to Soleimani's sacrifices on the battlefields against the Takfiri terrorists in Iraq and Syria, adding that Soleimani extinguished the great flames of Takfiri sedition, which is why the US did not tolerate him.
