An Iranian commander says Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) is ready to counter all enemy threats and defend the country against them.

“The most important mission of the IRGC is to protect and safeguard the Islamic Revolution and its achievements,” head of the IRGC Public Relations Department, Brigadier General Ramezan Sharif, said on Sunday.

The commander added that Iran’s achievements in missile defense, individual warfare and ground forces equipment have resulted in the enemy giving up on its plots against the Islamic Republic although it still continues anti-Iran rhetoric.

    “The IRGC is ready to defend and counter all enemy threats [against the country] in proportion to the type of threats posed by the enemies of the Revolution and the Islamic establishment ,”he added.

In recent years, Iran has made great achievements in its defense sector and attained self-sufficiency in producing essential military equipment and systems.

Tehran has repeatedly assured other nations that its military might poses no threat to other countries, insisting that the Islamic Republic’s defense doctrine is entirely based on deterrence.
