Over 100,000 Missiles in Lebanon Ready to Rain on Zionists: IRGC Chief


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami warned the Israeli regime that more than 100,000 missiles are prepared in Lebanon to create an inferno for the Zionists.

In an address during the funeral of five Iranian martyrs in Tehran on Thursday, Major General Salami highlighted the Islamic Republic’s power to deal with the enemies, referring to the previous confrontations with the large warships of the adversaries.  

“In Lebanon, tens of thousands, even more than one hundred thousand missiles, are ready to be fired to create a hell for the Zionists at the moment of making the divine predestination happen,” the IRGC commander warned.

He also cautioned the Zionist enemy that any mistake will force it to face “Bayt al-Muqaddas operation”, saying the Lebanese Hezbollah is able to bring the Israeli regime to its knees with an operation similar to Fath-ol-Mobin, Bayt al-Muqaddas or Operation Kheibar.

In comments in December 2021, President of Iran Ebrahim Raisi cautioned the enemies that any bellicose move will draw such a decisive response from the Iranian military forces that it will bring about a significant change in strategic equations.

In April this year, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Major General Mohammad Hossein Baqeri said all Iranian military forces are ready to give a decisive and crushing response to any threat at any level in such a way that the enemies of Iran would regret taking hostile action against the Islamic establishment.
