Mohammad Pakpour

Mohammad Pakpour, born on June second, nineteen sixty-one, was a prominent Iranian military officer who played a significant role in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). His career reached a pivotal moment in June twenty twenty-five when he was appointed as the commander of the IRGC, following the untimely death of his predecessor, Hossein Salami, during the Twelve-Day War.

Before ascending to this esteemed position, Pakpour had already made his mark as the head of the IRGC Ground Forces. His leadership was characterized by a commitment to the defense and strategic interests of Iran, which he upheld until his last days.

Tragically, Pakpour's life was cut short on February twenty-eight, twenty twenty-six, when Israeli forces announced his death amid the ongoing conflict known as the 2026 Iran war. This loss was later confirmed by Iranian state media, IRNA, marking a somber moment in the history of the IRGC and the nation.
