Iran’s Top General: Capacity Developed for Annihilation of Zionist Regime


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Capacities have been developed for the destruction and elimination of the Zionist regime, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri said.

In a congratulatory message to commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps on the Guardians’ Day, Major General Baqeri praised the IRGC for courageous confrontation with arrogant and hegemonic forces, saying “no power is capable of defeating the dear guardians (IRGC forces)”.

Highlighting the regional and extra-regional enemies’ fear of the Islamic Republic’s growing power in West Asia and the Mediterranean coasts, the top general said, “Before entering the second step of the (Islamic) Revolution, the capacities for the annihilation of the Zionist regime and, by God’s grace, the elimination of the fake, child-murdering and odious regime from the political geography of the region have been prepared.”

Major General Baqeri also noted that the IRGC forces have developed such great power that they are capable of offense and resistance at the same time.

The IRGC forces can strike the hubs of threat and the enemies’ camp in due time, with a desirable scope, on any scale, and with any degree of severity, he added.

A few weeks ago, the spokesperson for the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps warned the Zionist regime that it will definitely get its comeuppance for criminal actions against the Iranian nation.

In February, Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations dismissed the Israeli rhetoric of military action against Tehran, saying the Islamic Republic is ready for a crushing response to any threat.
