The Commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters said the country’s missile capabilities are far greater than what the enemies assume, stressing that the Iranian Armed Forces respond to threats through action on the battlefield rather than rhetoric.

In remarks on Sunday, Major General Ali Abdollahi said the American and Zionist enemies have consistently been plagued by miscalculations.

He noted that Iranian officials have repeatedly declared that the enemy would receive its response on the battlefield, expressing hope that the adversaries have now understood that Iran is not a country of slogans but one that proves its words through action.

Iran’s weapons have become more advanced than before, possessing greater resilience, higher accuracy, and stronger power, the commander added.

He stated that the experience gained from previous wars has been transformed into today’s operational capability, adding that the enemy is witnessing the effects of Iran’s power on the battlefield.

The enemy has repeatedly claimed it knows the number of Iran’s missiles, but it should count them on the battlefield to realize that it knows nothing about Iran’s real capabilities, the general stated.

The commander also stated that the malicious enemy targets innocent civilians, students, and families in their homes, while Iran strikes the enemy’s military centers and whatever is necessary to make the aggressors regret their actions.

Major General Abdollahi added that the war will continue until the enemy becomes remorseful for its behavior and actions.

The United States and the Zionist regime launched a large-scale military campaign against Iran following the assassination of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.

The attacks have involved extensive aerial strikes on both military and civilian locations across Iran, causing significant casualties and widespread damage to infrastructure.

In response, the Iranian Armed Forces have carried out retaliatory operations, targeting American and Israeli positions in the occupied territories and at regional bases with waves of missiles and drones.
