Chief commander of Iranian Army has vowed decisive response to potential threats by Israeli regime against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi raised the alarm on the last day of Zolfaghar 1401 joint drills on Monday, which included three days of exercises held over an area stretching from the Strait of Hormuz all the way to the Sea of Oman and north of the Indian Ocean.

“We often hear nonsensical comments from the Zionist regime and some of their officials. We tell them that in case of a threat directed at any part of the Islamic Republic of Iran from the Zionist regime, the [Iranian] Armed Forces will respond decisively and with multiple force,” Mousavi told reporters.

“In the past few days, the Iranian Army showcased some of its capabilities in defending the country and responding to the enemy,” he said, adding, “We have shown the world that we can respond to any threat in the best way.”

Pointing to the Zolfaghar 1401 joint drills, Mousavi said the military exercises were aimed at deterrence and security, and were carried out so that aggressor countries and those who are belligerent and totalitarian avoid miscalculations in thinking that they can invade another country.
