(presstv) -- In a congratulatory message to the Leader on Tuesday, General Soleimani hailed the “great victory” over Isis which was materialized thanks to the prudent leadership of Ayatollah Khamenei and the sacrifices of all resistance fighters in Iraq and Syria.

Backed by popular groups and Iranian military advisors, armed forces in Iraq and Syria have managed to flush Isis militants out of their last strongholds in both countries, declaring full victory over the notorious terror group.
