Israel hides real casualties it suffered at war with Iran
TEHRAN (Iran News) Major General Ali Abdollahi made the remarks in a meeting with the family of Martyr Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the former IRGC Aerospace Force Commander and also family of the former senior commander of Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters Martyr Ali Babakhani on Tuesday.
Commemorating the name and memory of martyrs during the eight years of Sacred Defense (Iraqi imposed war against Iran in 1980-1988), especially martyrs during 12-day war, he hailed the constructive and leading role of Martyr Hajizadeh in enhancing missile power of the country and his key role during 12-day Israeli imposed war against Iran is solid evidence of the issue.
Major General Abdollahi then referred to the defeat of Zionist enemy during 12-day war, stating that Zionist regime suffered very heavy and crushing blows during 12-day war but Israeli regime censors its death toll and blows it suffered att he hands of Iran.
These heavy blows caused the Israeli regime to unilaterally request a ceasefire, he said, adding that powerful Islamic Republic of Iran has never sought conflict or military confrontation.
On June 13, 2025, Israel launched a blatant and unprovoked aggression against Iran while Washington and Tehran were in a process of nuclear negotiations. The Israeli attack triggered a 12-day war that killed at least 1,064 people in the country, including military commanders, nuclear scientists, and ordinary civilians.
The United States also entered the war by bombing three Iranian nuclear sites in a grave violation of international law.
In response, the Iranian Armed Forces targeted strategic sites across the occupied territories as well as the Al-Udeid air base in Qatar, the largest American military base in West Asia.
On June 24, Iran, through its successful retaliatory operations against both the Israeli regime and the US, managed to impose a halt to the aggression.
