IRGC Vows Tough Response to Any New Israeli Aggression
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps warned the Zionist regime that any new act of aggression would trigger Iran’s crushing response, even harsher than the blows dealt during the 12-day war in June.
In a meeting with the head of the Judiciary Organization of the Iranian Armed Forces on Saturday, Major General Mohammad Pakpour said the IRGC forces are fully prepared to respond decisively.
He warned that if the Zionist regime dares to repeat an act of aggression against Iran, it will face a response more crushing than what it sustained during the 12-day war and will be left with deep regret.
On June 13, the Zionist regime launched an unprovoked war of aggression against Iran, targeting military, nuclear, and residential areas for 12 consecutive days. The United States later escalated the conflict by striking three of Iran’s nuclear sites in Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan on June 22.
Iran’s Armed Forces delivered an immediate and forceful response. The IRGC Aerospace Force carried out 22 waves of retaliatory missile strikes under Operation True Promise III, inflicting significant damage and heavy losses on cities across the occupied territories.
In retaliation for the US attacks, Iranian forces also targeted al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar —the largest American military installation in West Asia— with a barrage of missiles.
The confrontation came to an end on June 24, when a ceasefire was enforced.
