Air Defense Commander Warns of Iran’s Crushing Response to Threats

Commander of the Iranian Army’s Khatam ol-Anbiya Air Defense Base Brigadier General Alireza Sabahi Fard underlined high power of the country’s radar and missile systems, warning of a crushing response to possible threats.

General Sabahi Fard stressed that the country enjoys integrated missile and radar systems, saying the Army constantly monitors threats on land, air and sea so that if the enemy wants to take any action, it will face a firm and crushing response.

He said that the Iranian Armed Forces are using all capacities, including good training, to promote their power against all possible challenges.

His remarks came days after Commander of Iran’s Army Major General Abdolrahim Moussavi warned enemies against any strategic mistake against the country, warning of a crushing response.

“Thanks God, today, all army units enjoy high morale and full combat preparedness and if the enemy makes a miscalculation or strategic mistake, they will receive a response which makes them regret,” General Moussavi said, addressing the Army commanders in Tehran on Saturday.

He underlined the importance of vigilance and preparedness of Army units as a deterrence against the enemy threats, and assured the nation that his forces will defend the country’s security and interests to the last drop of their blood.

Also, last Wednesday, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Hossein Salami underlined that the enemies of Iran had exhausted all their attempts to defeat the country but in vain, adding that they had reached the end of line.

“Our enemies have reached the end of the line” and despite their ostentatious appearance, they are suffering from “osteoporosis”, General Salami said, addressing the IRGC commanders.  

“This is the most decisive moment for the Islamic Revolution, because the enemy has come to the battlefield with all of its capacities at its disposal,” he added.

General Salami also warned that Iran is “on the verge of a full-scale confrontation” with the enemies,” adding that they are trying to crush the Iranian nation’s resistance through “the strategy of maximum pressure and by using all of their capacities”.

However, they will fail once again to achieve their goal, he stressed.
