Speaking on Wednesday evening on the sidelines of a ceremony commemorating the commanders who were martyred in the 12-day war, Brigadier General Shekarchi added, “Every threat issued by (US President) Trump has been met with a powerful slap in the face from us, and we have proven this,” according to the Iranian news agency Mehr.
He continued, “Since June 13th of last year, the anniversary of the martyrdom of these commanders, we have been responding to every threat appropriately, with a response that is stronger, more forceful, and harsher than before.” He added, “There is no need for any concern, and thank God, we are under God’s protection and care.”
The senior spokesman for the Iranian Armed Forces concluded, “We are determined to defeat the enemy, and we will triumph over them, ِAllah willing.”
