The Commander-in-Chief of the Iranian Army, Major General Sayyed Abdolrahim Mousavi, said that the Iranian Armed Forces are at utmost readiness to decisively and strongly respond to any aggression against the Islamic Republicc's interests, in an exclusive statement to Al Mayadeen. 

He added, "Those that are rational, from opposing ranks, are trying to prevent the Zionist entity from making another mistake, but for us, an enemy is an enemy," stressing that an attack of any magnitude would be responded to in equal proportions. 

On his part, the Commander of the Iranian Navy Shahram Irani told Al Mayadeen that Iran has been receiving threats for 45 years, but it never stepped back, surrendered, or stopped its quest. 

Threatening Iran's enemies, Irani said "Our message has been sent, but we repeating it today. And with our people's diligence, we shall move forward."

Iran's retaliatory attack aimed at punishing 'Israel': Raisi

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi pointed out earlier today that Iran's retaliatory attack against "Israel" was a precise action aimed at punishing the Israeli occupation entity.

In a speech during the National Army Day ceremony held in the Iranian capital Tehran, Raisi indicated that Operation True Promise was a limited action, underlining that should Iran decide on a broader operation against "Israel", the occupation entity would be wiped out.

He warned that any hostile actions by "Israel" against Iran's interests would be met with a stronger response, adding that "today, there is no more talk of a military option against the Iranian nation, and this is important because of the deterrence and authority of our armed forces."

During the celebrations, the Iranian Armed Forces spokesman, Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi, warned the US, France, and Britain against supporting the terrorist, child-killing Israeli occupation, that is on its way to non-existence. 

He addressed the Western nations, saying "You are well aware that Iran is not looking for war and is not planning on escalating the regional conflict, but we will respond stronger and harsher than we have against the Zionist entity, and cut the legs of any nation that oversteps our red lines."

He then stated that Iran only exhibited a humble part of its military capabilities during Operation True Promise "which failed all of your security and defense systems, including the Iron Dome."

The Commander of the Iranian Army's Ground Force, Brigadier General Kioumars Heydari, affirmed in an exclusive statement yesterday to Al Mayadeen that Iranian forces are "always prepared to respond to any threat, regardless of its magnitude, at any time, and any day."

He stated that the Iranian response to any attack would be as decisive and strong as the one the illegitimate Zionist entity suffered on April 14, stressing that this approach is to protect Iran's people and defend their dignity and sovereignty.

Moreover, the Deputy Commander of the Iranian Navy's Naval Force, Admiral Hamza Ali Kawiani, exclusively told Al Mayadeen that the Iranian Armed Forces are all at maximum battle readiness.

He reiterated that Iran would counter any violation of its sovereignty with a destructive response, emphasizing that its land, naval, and aerial capabilities are at their fullest. 

"Iran's capabilities are highly destructive, and any enemy that thinks of attacking us shall regret it," Kawiani said, adding that the Iranian forces will always defend the objectives and goals of the Islamic Revolution.
