@ShaykhSulaiman Breaking: Statement by the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces:
“Following the illegitimate actions of the Zionist regime, assassinating our military advisors in Syria and Lebanon, and assassinating the leaders of the resistance such as Ismael Haniyeh and Hassan Nasrallah, and especially its massacres in Gaza and Lebanon, a harsh response was necessary.
The Islamic Republic of Iran, in the past 45 years, has never initiated any war, but will not hesitate to act in self-defence.
The General Staff of the Armed Forces thanks all the different branches of the Armed Forces that took part in today’s operation: the IRGC Aerospace Force, the Army, and the Ministry of Defense.
If the Zionist regime retaliates against Iran, it must wait for the destruction of its military infrastructure in the occupied Palestinian territories. In case of direct US-support for Israel in any attack on Iran, their facilities and bases in the region will be targeted in a harsh and regretful manner.”
