Iranian Armed Forces: Ready to Respond Swiftly to Enemy Threats

According to Iran’s Islamic Republic Broadcasting and Television, on the 21st, Abdullah, commander of the Central Headquarters of Iran’s Hatem Anbiya armed forces, said that the Iranian armed forces are united with the government and the people, will follow the orders of the highest commander, and are ready to respond decisively and promptly to enemy threats and actions. In a speech delivered on the eve of the anniversary of the establishment of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Abdullah said that, with its state of readiness and comprehensive strategic capabilities, Iran’s military, through deadly and effective missile and drone strikes, has made Israel and the United States feel “desperate and exhausted,” forcing them to request a ceasefire. Abdullah said that Iran will not allow the United States to “abuse power and fabricate facts,” especially with regard to the issue of the Strait of Hormuz, in the course of military operations, and will resolutely respond to any actions that violate commitments.
