Iranian Armed Forces Will Turn Every Threat Into an Opportunity
WANA (Sep 22) – Iran’s Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces, on the occasion of Sacred Defense Week (Iran-Iraq eight-year war), emphasized that the enemy was defeated within 12 days of the recent war by the indigenous military and defense power, regional capacities, and the decisive and proportionate response of Iran’s Armed Forces.
Major General Mousavi, in this message, stated: Iran not only does not remain passive, but turns every threat into an opportunity to demonstrate national, regional, and international power.
He added: The development of modern and advanced defense technologies and the strengthening of deterrent power, along with preparedness to confront hybrid warfare—especially the enemy’s cognitive warfare—must be prioritized.
The Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces stressed: We assure the noble and heroic nation of Iran that the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic, relying on strategic surprises, are ready to confront any threats from global bullies and oppressors with timely, decisive, regret-inducing, and beyond-expectation responses.

On June 13, the Israeli regime, in a blatant violation of international law and Iran’s national sovereignty, launched a military attack targeting areas in Tehran and other cities, including the country’s nuclear facilities. This terrorist act killed several Iranian scientists, military personnel, and civilians. This action did not go unpunished, as Iran’s Supreme Leader stated, and the Israeli regime faced severe retaliatory strikes.
In the continuation of this aggression, the United States also joined Israel’s war against Iran by launching direct attacks early Sunday (June 22) on Iran’s nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. This aggression also faced a strong response, in which Iran struck the U.S. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar. This base is the headquarters of the U.S. Air Force and its largest strategic asset in West Asia.
Finally, on June 24, the U.S. President announced a ceasefire agreement between Iran and the Israeli regime. The Islamic Republic of Iran, while stressing that it did not start the war, declared that if the Israeli regime halts its illegal aggression, Iran also has no intention of continuing its retaliatory actions.
