Top commander warns Iran will tolerate no threat against its integrity

The Commander of Iran’s Army Ground Force, Brigadier General Kiumars Heidari, warned that the Islamic Republic will not tolerate any threats against its territorial integrity and national security.
“The country’s borders are our red line and maintaining their security is one of the highest priorities of the Army Ground Force,” Heidari said on Monday.
 
He said the constant presence of the border guards would act as a bulwark against threats, saying, “This is a source of pride for the Armed Forces and the Iranian nation."
 
Heidari asserted that his forces are always ready to confront any threat and challenge using advanced equipment and constant training.
 
He said the Ground Forces rely on their capabilities to protect Iran’s borders and guarantee security in the region.
 
US President Donald Trump has ratcheted up war rhetoric against Iran. He has claimed that Tehran can be dealt with either through military means or by reaching a deal over its nuclear program.
 
On March 17, Trump also signaled a significant escalation, threatening Iran over any operations carried out by Yemen against Israel.
 
However, Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei said on March 21 that US threats against Iran "will get them nowhere."
 
The Leader added that Americans "and others should know that if they do anything malign to the Iranian nation, they will get a hard slap."
