Baku, Azerbaijan, Nov. 30

By Khalid Kazimov – Trend:

The Muslim world will retaliate against a recent terrorist attack carried out by the IS terrorist group (ISIS,ISIL, Daesh) on a group of Shia pilgrims in Iraq, a commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) said.

Brigadier General Ahmad Khadem has said that the ISIS will get an “iron fist on the head” in the coming days, Tasnim news agency reported.

Speaking on the sidelines of a funeral ceremony held for those Iranians killed in the past week’s truck bomb attack near Iraq’s Hilla City, the commander said that the Muslim world condemns the terrorist attack.

The terrorist group will receive “a tooth-breaking response”, he added.

Media reports on Nov. 24 said that about 77 people, most of them Shia pilgrims from Iran and Afghanistan, were killed in the truck bomb attack near Hilla, some 100 kilometers south of Baghdad.
