AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): A senior commander of the Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) says the US does not dare to threaten Iran with a military attack.
Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, who serves as commander of IRGC’s Aerospace Force, said on Monday that the United States had sent messages to Iran on several occasions in recent weeks asking for peace amid a regional conflict centered in Palestine.
“The Americans do not threaten Iran … they sent correspondences to Iran three times in a single night and the wording of all these correspondences contained requests and begging,” Hajizadeh told reporters in Tehran.
He said Iran is not in a position to be threatened by enemies, even in the midst of the conflict in Gaza where the Israeli regime has been involved in a war against civilians.
“We are at the height of (our) power and we have prepared ourselves for any eventuality,” said the commander.
The remarks come amid concerns that the war in Gaza may spread to other parts of West Asia where resistance groups have warned that they could target US interests in the region because of its support for the Israeli regime.
Hajizadeh said the confrontation has already spread to Lebanon, where the resistance group Hezbollah has been engaged in cross-border clashes with the Israeli regime.
He said, however, that the conflict may further escalate, adding that Iran is ready for any possible scenario.
