The Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, has awarded the Medal of Conquest to Brigadier General Amir-Ali Hajizadeh after the retaliatory missile strike on Israel.

The awarding of the commander of the IRGC Aerospace Division came after Iran launched 180 ballistic missiles at Israeli military and intelligence bases on October 1^st.
 
“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 (conquest).
 
In April, Iran launched hundreds of drones and missiles against Israel, in an unprecedented attack that came as a response to the occupying regime's raid on the Iranian consulate in Syria. 
 
On Tuesday, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps launched 180 ballistic missiles at two Israeli airbases housing F-35 and F-15 warplanes as well as the Mossad headquarters in retaliation for the regime's assassination of Hamas and Hezbollah leaders and a top IRGC commander.
