TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Ground Force Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour highlighted his forces’ defense capability and said they can be of service to all the oppressed people and Muslims around the world.

Addressing a ceremony held in Tehran on Sunday with Foreign military attachés in Iran in attendance, Brigadier General Pakpour described the IRGC Ground Force as a force at the front line of defending the Islamic Republic.

The commander stressed that his forces have the deterrent power to prevent any war and the capability to respond to any threat posed against the country.
