Tehran, April 12, IRNA -- Commander of the Army’s Ground Forces Brigadier General Ahmad-Reza Pour-Dastan said on Monday that if the enemies dare to commit any mistake and launch military assault on Iran, they will be given a crushing and humiliating response.
Speaking to reporters on the occasion of ‘Army Week’, he said that if the enemies ventured into making mistake and launch aggression on Iran, the armed forces will target their bases and allies in the region.
Highlighting capabilities of the Army's ground forces, he said the Iranian ground forces were the first who engaged with Iraq during the eight-year imposed war (1980-1988).
Iranian armed forces are ready to confront the enemies in the classic or non-classic war with the enemies no matter the scale and capabilities of the enemies, he said.
Iranian armed forces are in full combat readiness and are ready to deal with various scenarios in line with modern tactics and weapons, he said.
"Iranian ground forces are ready to confront simultaneously in different fronts with the enemies’ ground troops.
“US forces have been entrapped in quagmire in Iraq and Afghanistan and are not ready to open another front with Iran and we believe that the recent threat posed by US was a media propaganda."
