Iran’s Security Ministry has seized a large shipment of smuggled weapons in Sistan and Baluchestan Province, in the country’s southeast, according to a report by Al Mayadeen’s correspondent on Wednesday.
Our correspondent clarified that the shipment comprised US weapons smuggled by groups linked to "Israel’s" Mossad intelligence agency, aiming to destabilize the country’s security and carry out terrorist operations.
The Public Relations Office of the Intelligence Department in Sistan and Baluchestan announced in a statement, reported by Tasnim News Agency, that it had "discovered and confiscated more than 210 pieces of military-grade weaponry in three separate operations during the current month."
IRGC warns its foes: Response to exceed expectations
In a statement commemorating the 40th day since the martyrdom of Iran's military commanders, the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) stressed that any threat to the country's security would receive a response more decisive than the enemy could anticipate and more severe than Operation True Promise 3.
The IRGC, along with other branches of Iran’s armed forces, is always prepared to deliver a firm and regret-inducing response to any threats or aggression by the US, "Israel", and their allies, at any time and in any place, the statement read.
It added that Iran loudly and forcefully declares any threat to the country’s security and territorial integrity will be met with a devastating response, surpassing what adversaries could anticipate and far exceeding the intensity of what aggressors endured during Operation True Promise 3.
