Iran Ready to Deal Crushing Blow to Israel: Army Chief


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The commander of the Iranian Army warned that the Zionist regime’s miscalculation will trigger a devastating response from Tehran.

The spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy commission gave details of a meeting the commission members had with Iran’s Army Commander Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi.

The Army chief has made it clear in the meeting that the Iranian Armed Forces are fully prepared to deal a shattering blow to the Zionist regime in case of any Israeli mistake, Ebrahim Rezaei said.

The top general has also highlighted the role of the Army in the operation True Promise II, reiterating the military forces’ readiness to protect the country’s territorial integrity, the spokesman added.

On October 1, Iran responded to the Israeli assassination of Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah Secretary General Seyed Hassan Nasrallah, and IRGC general Abbas Nilforoushan by launching as many as 200 ballistic missiles toward the Zionist regime’s military and intelligence bases all over the occupied Palestinian territories.

While the Zionist regime has threatened to retaliate, Iranian officials have warned that Tehran’s reciprocal response to any Israeli action will be harsh, proportional and well-calculated.
