"Given the heavy failures that the ISIL and other terrorist groups in Iraq and Syria have sustained, we are sure that these groups are nearing the end of their life," Soleimani said, addressing a ceremony on the occasion of the 36th anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution in the Southern province of Kerman on Wednesday.

He said that persuading and organizing the Takfiri streams to impair the face of Islam and creating sedition and civil war among Muslims is the last weapon used by the arrogant powers.

In relevant remarks in October, General Soleimani underlined that the US moves in the region and the terrorist attacks by the ISIL would end in failure.

"I believe that both the US moves and the terrorist acts of the ISIL are doomed to failure because they are not in quest for truth," General Soleimani told reporters in Tehran.

"Their solution will not lead to victory; we have all witnessed in Syria that the measures they adopted did not produce any fruit (for them)," he added.
