The Iranian army will forcefully confront any aggression and defend the country’s sovereignty without compromise, Iran’s top military commander, Major General Amir Hatami, affirmed on Thursday.

During a visit to the families of Iranian army martyrs, Hatami stated that Iranian air defense had "forcefully repelled the Israeli aggression on the country and emerged from the confrontation with pride."

He emphasized that "the Iranian people and armed forces stood united in the face of the attack and have never wavered from their objectives."

In a related statement, IRGC spokesperson Brigadier General Ali Mohammad Naeini warned that Iran would deliver a "destructive and unprecedented" response in the event of any future threat.

Moreover, during a memorial service for martyrs held at the Tehran Prayer Hall, Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi, Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces, asserted Iran's victory over "Israel" and the United States, vowing harsh retaliation against any future actions by the occupation.

"All evidence, both obvious and hidden, points to Israel facing a humiliating defeat at the hands of Iran," Maj. Gen. Mousavi stated.

"The real aim of Iran's enemies was to weaken the Islamic Republic's system and fragment the country, the nuclear issue was just a pretext," the Iranian Chief of Staff declared, adding that "Israel" and the United States were handed a defeat due to the strength of the Iranian people and armed forces.

The Major General highlighted that "The Israelis were forced to request a ceasefire in order to reorganize their affairs, hoping they might later be able to take some action," emphasizing that "Israel" will face a harsh retaliation should they "make another mistake".

Mousavi emphasized that "Should the war prolong and enter a new stage, Israel will encounter Iranian military strengths that have remained undeployed so far."
