Major General Hossein Salami, the commander of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC), stated that Iranian support for the Resistance factions is solely political, while they rely on themselves for weapons production. 

Speaking to Iranian news media outlets, Salami said, "Every pillar of the Resistance Front operates on its own ground, driven by its own motives, according to its national interests and local capabilities, without relying on others."

However, he added that all objectives, beliefs, and enemies are common between Iran, Lebanon, Yemen, and Palestine.

Regarding the IRGC, Salami stressed that its strength was incomparable, affirming that "There is no power in the world capable of overcoming the IRGC. The IRGC never abandons the field and knows that neglecting the enemy could lead to a sudden attack from them."

This comes after the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, stressed on Sunday that "those who repeat that Iran has lost its proxy forces are wrong because Iran does not have proxy forces in the first place," asserting that Iran does not need proxy forces.

Sayyed Khamenei pointed out during a meeting with religious eulogists, marking the birthday of Fatima Zahraa, the daughter of Prophet Mohammad, that "America's plan to impose its hegemony over a country is either to install a tyrannical regime that serves its interests or to create chaos," stressing that "America's plan in Syria is to spread chaos and riots."

He emphasized that Americans who claim they will support those causing chaos in Iran are "delusional and misguided fools," as the Iranian people will "crush anyone who chooses to become a mercenary for the United States."
