Kassem Soleimani was a high-ranking Iranian military officer in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and the commander of the Quds Force, known for orchestrating Iran's extraterritorial military and clandestine operations. He played a significant role in Iran's regional influence, particularly in Iraq and Syria, and was a key figure in supporting militant groups like Hezbollah.
