يعد قائد الحرس الثوري الإيراني اللواء حسين سلامي، الذي اغتالته إسرائيل اليوم (الجمعة)، من أبرز القادة العسكريين المقربين من المرشد الأعلى علي خامنئي، وعُرف بخطاباته وتصريحاته الحادة ضد إسرائيل والغرب.
وحسب وكالة «تسنيم»، عين خامنئي اللواء محمد باكبور قائداً للحرس الثوري، وهو من مواليد عام 1961 في أراك.
وكان سلامي حذر الشهر الماضي إسرائيل والولايات المتحدة من أي هجوم على إيران بقوله: «إذا ارتكبتم أدنى خطأ، فسنفتح عليكم أبواب جهنم».
وُلد سلامي عام 1960، وتعود الظهور بانتظام في الاحتفالات وعلى شاشات التلفزيون ملقياً خطابات نارية، ردد خلالها الهجمات الكلامية اللاذعة التي يطلقها المسؤولون ضد إسرائيل.
وهو من الجيل الأول للحرس الثوري الذي أنشئ في مطلع الحرب العراقية الإيرانية (1980-1988)، وأمضى معظم مسيرته في صفوفه. وعمل سلامي قائداً سابقاً لسلاح الجو التابع للحرس الثوري.
وشغل منصب نائب القائد لـ9 سنوات، ثم عُيّن قائداً للحرس الثوري الإيراني في أبريل 2019 خلفاً لمحمد علي جعفري، في مرحلة تغييرات كبيرة أجرتها السلطات الإيرانية في قيادة المنظمة.
وسبق أن بث التلفزيون الرسمي الإيراني لقطات لسلامي وهو يصدر عبر الهاتف من مركز قيادة عسكري الأوامر لقوات الحرس الثوري بشن عملية ضد إسرائيل خلال الهجوم الإيراني بالطائرات المسيرة والصواريخ في منتصف أبريل 2024، الذي كان الأول من نوعه.
ومن أبرز تصريحاته عام 2018 دعوة رئيس الوزراء الإسرائيلي بنيامين نتنياهو إلى أن «يتدرب على السباحة في البحر الأبيض المتوسط»؛ لأنه قد يُجبر على الفرار من بلاده.

The commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, Major General Hossein Salami, who was assassinated by Israel today (Friday), is one of the most prominent military leaders close to Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, known for his sharp speeches and statements against Israel and the West.
According to the "Tasnim" agency, Khamenei appointed General Mohammad Pakpour as the commander of the Revolutionary Guard, who was born in 1961 in Arak.
Last month, Salami warned Israel and the United States against any attack on Iran, stating: "If you make the slightest mistake, we will open the gates of hell upon you."
Salami was born in 1960 and regularly appeared at celebrations and on television screens delivering fiery speeches, echoing the biting verbal attacks launched by officials against Israel.
He is from the first generation of the Revolutionary Guard, which was established at the beginning of the Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988), and spent most of his career within its ranks. Salami previously served as the commander of the air force of the Revolutionary Guard.
He held the position of deputy commander for 9 years, then was appointed commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard in April 2019, succeeding Mohammad Ali Jafari, during a period of significant changes made by Iranian authorities in the leadership of the organization.
The Iranian state television previously broadcast footage of Salami issuing orders via phone from a military command center to the Revolutionary Guard forces to launch an operation against Israel during the Iranian drone and missile attack in mid-April 2024, which was the first of its kind.
One of his most notable statements in 2018 was his invitation to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "practice swimming in the Mediterranean Sea"; because he might be forced to flee his country.
