In a message released on Sunday, Major General Amir Hatami expressed gratitude to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution for appointing him to the post, and said, "With the support of the brave and selfless soldiers of the revolutionary Army, we will protect the independence, territorial integrity, and sacred system of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the last breath."
Extending congratulations on Eid al-Ghadir and offering condolences over the martyrdom of commanders, scientists, and innocent people in recent Israeli attacks, Hatami reaffirmed his loyalty to the ideals of the Islamic Revolution and the blood of the martyrs.
