Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi said on Monday that he has 'no doubt' that Iran will avenge the death of Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officer Colonel Hassan Sayyad Khodaei, who was a member of the IRGC Quds Force in Syria, which he said was an act of 'terrorism'.
"I insist on the serious pursuit [of the assassins] by security officials, and I have no doubt that the blood of this great martyr will be avenged" he stated, speaking to reporters on Monday morning.
Raisi said that Iran's probe into the assassination would reveal that "global arrogance" was behind the "criminal act", saying "There is no doubt that the hand of global arrogance can be seen in this crime".
