Seven months after the death of General Qassem Soleimani, Tehran continues to take revenge. Iran executed a man convicted of spying for the United States and Israel on Monday. Above all, it is, according to Iranian justice, the source of the leaks on the movements of Soleimani, killed in an American drone strike.
For Trump, Soleimani was the "number one terrorist"
"Mahmoud Moussavi Majd's sentence was carried out on Monday morning for espionage so that the case of his betrayal towards his country is closed forever," said the Iranian justice official website, Mizan Online.
An architect of Iran's Middle East strategy, the powerful General Soleimani, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard branch responsible for the Islamic Republic's external operations, was killed on January 3 in front of Baghdad International Airport, with his Lieutenant, the Iraqi Abou Mehdi al-Mouhandis, leader of the pro-Iran paramilitaries in this country. To justify the order to kill him, US President Donald Trump had assured after his death that Soleimani, whom he described as "the number one terrorist" in the world, was planning "imminent" attacks on American diplomats and soldiers.
