Commander cautions enemies about seriousness of Supreme Leader’s warnings

The Iranian Armed Forces have the necessary capability to bring into action the Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei’s warnings to enemies, Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari said Wednesday.

“The deterrent warnings of the Supreme Leader of the (Islamic) Revolution to enemies are serious and based on the capacities and reality of the Islamic Iran’s defensive power,” Jafari said, addressing Iranian border guards units in the country’s Northwestern regions.

He said the IRGC is fully prepared to face all types of threat scenarios, and stated, “We have supremacy and dominance and are in control of the developments in the region and we have created the necessary capacities to defend the revolution’s achievements, the ruling system’s causes and ideals and the national interest.”

In similar remarks on Monday, a senior Iranian military commander dismissed enemies’ warmongering rhetoric against Iran as unworthy, saying that the Iranian Armed Forces are capable of razing Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground as stated by the Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei last month.

Speaking to reporters, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces for Logistics and Industrial Research General Mohammad Hejazi pointed to the remarks made by The Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei about Tehran’s crushing response to the US and Israel’s possible hostile moves, and noted that the Leader is “well aware” of the Iranian Armed Forces’ capability.

“We enjoy the needed level of preparedness to put this statement (razing Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground) into action in the shortest time possible if the enemy makes a foolish move,” Hejazi underlined.

Addressing a large and fervent congregation of the Iranian people in the country’s Northeastern holy city of Mashhad on March 21, Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei deplored Israel’s war rhetoric against Iran, and warned that any hostile move by the Zionist regime against the Islamic Republic would be reciprocated with a destructive response.

The Leader of the Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Seyyed Ali Khamenei pointed to the recent warmongering statements by Israeli officials and warned Tel Aviv against any wrongdoing against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

“Israel’s leaders sometimes threaten Iran, but they know that if they do a damn thing, the Islamic Republic will raze Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground,” Ayatollah Khamenei stressed.
