'Iran never won a war', says Donald Trump after Soleimani killing

The President of United States, Donald Trump tweeted 'Iran never won a war' on January 3 after American troops killed Iran's top commander Qassem Soleimani. As confirmed by the White House and the Pentagon, the head of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) was killed by US air raid at Baghdad's international airport on Friday, along with six others. However, Iran called it “malice and stupidity of American terrorist forces”. After posting America's flag on his twitter account, the recent statement by Trump is also the first one since the airstrike. 

The recent killings have reportedly sent shock waves through the Middle East region and have resulted in intensified tensions between the US and Iran. Soleimani led a special forces unit of Iran's elite Revolutionary Guards and has also been blamed for hundreds of Americans and several others across the region. Iran's President Hassan Rouhani in a tweet said that 'Iran will take revenge for this heinous crime'.
