The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Iran has reaffirmed the nation’s readiness to respond to any threats with decisive action. In a statement issued on Saturday, Iranian military officials emphasized their preparedness, describing the country’s armed forces as “powerful” and capable of countering any aggression.
“The powerful Armed Forces of Iran are always ready to deliver a decisive response to any threat,” the statement read, underlining Iran’s determination to maintain its sovereignty and security in the face of external pressures.
The statement also attributed recent developments in Syria to a joint strategy by the United States and Israel, alleging that the two nations are orchestrating events to destabilize the region. According to Iranian officials, this is part of a broader campaign by “hegemonic powers” aimed at undermining the resistance and resilience of nations like Iran.
In a defiant tone, the General Staff declared that such plans are doomed to fail, highlighting what it called the “resilience of the Iranian nation” as a key factor in overcoming external conspiracies. The message serves as a warning to adversaries while reinforcing Iran’s commitment to regional alliances, particularly with Syria, a long-standing ally.
Tensions in the Middle East have remained high in recent months, with Syria often emerging as a hotspot for geopolitical rivalries. Iran’s statement reflects its broader stance against US and Israeli influence in the region and its continued support for allies resisting Western-led initiatives.
