Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps said, "Operation Martyr Soleimani" was in response to "the criminal and terrorist operation of the American invaders and to avenge the cowardly assassination and painful martyrdom of the heroic leader" of the elite Quds Force, SIA reports referring to TRT World.
IRGC said it "fired dozens of ground-to-ground missiles at the invading airbase of the terrorist army of the American aggressor... Ain al Assad, and crushed this base".
Iranian Defence Minister Amir Hatami has also reacted to the strikes.
"We used short-range missiles ... I hope this will be a memorable lesson for America," Hatami said in reference to Wednesday's Iranian strikes on US targets that followed last week's killing of an Iranian commander in a US drone strike.
