Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has conferred the Order of Fat'h (Conquest) on Brigadier General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh, the commander of the IRGC’s Aerospace Division.
The order is granted to warriors with dramatic victories. The awarding on Sunday came after Iran’s launch of 180 ballistic missiles at Israeli military and intelligence bases in the Tel Aviv area on Tuesday.
“The awarding of the order is in recognition of the brilliant Operation True Promise,” Iran’s news agencies reported.
The medal consists of the likeness of three palm leaves on top of the grand mosque of Khorramshahr in southwest Iran as a symbol of resistance, the flag of Iran and the word fat’h.
