Al-Sadiq said during a speech he delivered at the memorial festival held by the Iranian embassy in Baghdad on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the martyrdom of the leaders of victory, which was attended by the correspondent of the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "We commemorate the fifth anniversary of the martyrdom of the leaders of victory and the heroes of the fight against global terrorism, the two martyr leaders, Hajj Qasim Soleimani and Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, at a time when the region is witnessing major, rapid and influential developments after Al-Aqsa Flood operations."
 
He added, "Among the most prominent regional challenges and threats that we are witnessing are the Zionists' war in Gaza and the genocide there, the entity's war against Hezbollah and the rapid collapse of Syria."
 
The Iranian ambassador said, "The martyrdom of Qasim Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis was treachery and not a fair confrontation on the battlefield, and they are worthy of it and men, at a time when we see that the Zionist entity is talking about Netanyahu's defeat, talking about victory."
 
Regarding the events in Syria, Al-Sadiq stressed that "the position of the Islamic Republic of Iran is to preserve Syria's sovereignty, the unity of its lands and its integrity, and to defeat the Zionist occupation from it," stressing that "a comprehensive government must be formed that includes all nationalities and intellectual trends, and the Syrian people must determine their future themselves through free elections."
