Iran’s Armed Forces ready to deal with any threat

“At the present time, the Armed Forces are maintaining a high level of readiness to give a response to any threat and act of aggression by enemies of the Islamic Iran,” Major General Mohammad Baqeri said as he addressed a gathering of military forces in Iran's southwestern Khuzestan Province on Sunday.

The senior military commander added that enemies of the Islamic Republic have been trying for the past four decades to deal a blow to the Islamic Revolution of Iran.

“The world-devouring America, the usurping Zionist regime [of Israel] and regional reactionary regimes have been trying to threaten and deal a blow to the Islamic Revolution of Iran for the past 40 years,” he said.

Baqeri emphasized that despite all their efforts, the enemies of Iran have not been able to deal even a slight blow to the Islamic Republic.

Amid some reports about Israel's preparation for military action against Iran with US support, a senior Iranian official on Saturday strongly ruled out the possibility of a war against the Islamic Republic given enemies' awareness of Iran's "political strength and its military and security preparedness."

A senior Iranian official emphatically rules out the possibility of a war against the Islamic Republic.

"As the official in charge of the country's national security body, I am explicitly and confidently announcing that the possibility of a war [against Iran] is ruled out because of enemies' assessment of the Islamic Republic's political strength, its military and security preparedness in domestic and foreign arenas, as well as their lack of determination, coherence and operational capability," Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Ali Shamkhani said.
