“Israel in worst security condition”, IRGC Spokesman

"The Zionist regime is experiencing the worst security condition and is under intense pressure," Brigadier General Ramezan Sharif told reporters on Saturday.

He added that the Zionists have repeatedly claimed that security prevails across the 27,000 square kilometers of occupied Palestinian territories that they control.

"Their (Israelis) measures have no impact on the Islamic Republic at all because they are unable to confront Iran," the IRGC commander said.
The Israelis have repeatedly claimed that if joined, the armies of Arab countries are unable to defeat the regime’s army, Sharif said, adding, "However, we witnessed how Israel was defeated for the first time by [Lebanon's] Hezbollah [resistance movement] in the 33-Day War."

"The Israelis are extremely vulnerable and live in fear all the time. They keep saying that they have the Iron Dome (missile system) or cyber (systems), and this exposes their weakness," he emphasized.

The US, Israel, and the Arab countries – Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates in particular – have for long warned of what they claim to be threats posed by Iran’s military capabilities.

Tehran, meanwhile, has repeatedly made clear that its homegrown military capabilities remain defensive and deterrent in nature and are intended to prevent foreign intruders from destabilizing the region.

It has also urged Persian Gulf states to quit relying on foreign powers for their security and that regional security can be achieved only by neighboring states.

The commander of the IRGC Navy said on Friday that any cooperation with the Israeli regime poses a threat to and disrupts security in the Persian Gulf region.

Addressing a meeting with IRGC commanders and officials, Rear Admiral Alireza Tangsiri underscored the importance of security in Iran and the neighboring countries, warning against allowing Israel and its Western allies to gain a foothold in the region.
