WANA (Feb 24)  – The commander of the Central Headquarters of Hazrat Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) stated that any threat from the “Zionist regime” against the interests of the Iranian nation will be assessed as being based on full U.S. support for Israel and the armed forces will take decisive action in response.

 

Major General Gholam Ali Rashid, commander of the Central Headquarters of Hazrat Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH), speaking to commanders during the joint Zolfaghar military exercise of the Islamic Republic of Iran Army in the Third Naval Region in Konarak, emphasized: “Our commanders view military exercises in the field as a prelude to war, and therefore, these exercises require precise planning, seriousness, and creativity in their objectives. One of the key goals of these exercises is to influence the enemy’s mindset, beliefs, and resolve.”

 

General Rashid added: “For the past four decades, our enemies have made miscalculations and suffered from illusions due to their lack of understanding of our nation’s unity and the people’s determination to defend our beloved Iran.”

 

He continued: “For the past four months, the Zionist regime has been attempting to deceive the Americans, Europeans, and some regional countries by presenting a false narrative of Iran’s power. Throughout its 70 years of disgraceful and aggressive existence, the Zionist regime has consistently projected an image of its strength in the media that does not match its actual reality in occupied Palestine. As a result, it constantly lives in fear of existential threats, under the shadow of the Resistance Front and its own inherent fragility. This is the price it pays for its lies.”

 

The commander of the Central Headquarters of Hazrat Khatam al-Anbiya (PBUH) warned: “We caution the Zionist regime and the United States, which fully supports Israel, that any threat by the Zionist regime against the interests of the Iranian nation will be regarded as an extension of U.S. backing. Our armed forces will take decisive action, targeting the origin of any aggression, as well as the facilities and support bases used to assist Israel.”
