The commander of the Revolutionary Guard, General Hassan Hassan Zadeh, announced on Thursday, "We are prepared for rapid offensive operations."
He added that Iranian forces are ready for swift deployment to any point within the country and to confront "the enemy, regardless of their situation," as reported by Mehr News Agency. He stated that "this offensive stance delivers a clear message to adversaries," according to him.
Furthermore, Hassan Zadeh expressed his view that U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are "unable to face public opinion and their elites today."
