TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Commander of Iran’s Army Ground Force said defensive capabilities of all of the country’s combat units are upgraded constantly based on the guidelines set by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei.
Speaking to reporters in Iran’s western city of Kermanshah on Saturday, Brigadier General Ahmad Reza Pourdastan assured people that all hostile moves across the region are being monitored by the Iranian Armed Forces.
“We create the necessary defensive capacities in the units proportional to the threats,” he stressed.
The commander also pointed to an upgrade in the defensive power of the ground, naval and air forces according to the Supreme Leader’s guidelines.
Pourdastan warned that any threat against Iran will face the military forces’ “decisive and crushing” response.
Earlier this month, Imam Khamenei called on the Iranian armed forces to speed up their progress and boost their preparation to gain such power that enemies would not even think of attacking the country.
