 The following report appeared in Iran’s influential daily Kayhan on December 1, 2004:
A memorial plaque commemorating the man who carried out the largest martyrdom-seeking operation against Global Arrogance [the United States and its allies"> will be unveiled tomorrow in Behesht-e Zahra Cemetery in Tehran.
The ceremonies, which are intended as a declaration of readiness by the Headquarters for Commemoration of Martyrs of Global Islamic Movement, will take place at 5 pm.
The name of the man who carried out the biggest martyrdom-seeking operation against Global Arrogance has been kept secret and he has remained anonymous since the operation. In 1983, he was able to kill more than 300 occupiers of Lebanon with his courageous operation.
The Headquarters for Commemoration of Martyrs of Global Islamic Movement announced that a special martyrdom-seeking unit called Yahya Ayyash Unit has been formed and volunteers for martyrdom-seeking operations who would like to join the unit will be registered tomorrow. |
