Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has appointed Brigadier General Hojatollah Ghoreishi as its new coordinating deputy commander, replacing Mohammadreza Naghdi, local media reported on Sunday.

Ghoreishi, who previously served as deputy defense minister, has reportedly been in the role for several weeks. Naghdi had held the position since 2020.

Iranian outlets said that Ghoreishi was referred to by his new title during a visit to the western city of Aligoudarz in early October, signaling the formal transition.
