SAEDNEWS: A high-ranking commander warned that Iran will certainly impose a cost greater than any gains the adversary seeks in the event of a miscalculation or aggression against the Islamic Republic.
In a meeting with several Iranian lawmakers on Monday, Major General Ali Abdollahi, Commander of Iran’s Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters, stated that the Iranian Armed Forces are prioritizing the enhancement of both defensive and offensive capabilities, in line with the evolving nature of threats and the characteristics of future warfare.
He emphasized that adversaries must recognize that Iran continuously monitors their actions and remains fully prepared, warning that any miscalculation or act of aggression would trigger consequences far beyond the gains the enemy seeks.
Highlighting past conflicts, Abdollahi recalled that a miscalculation by Zionist and US forces led to a 12-day war against Iran, noting that the Iranian Armed Forces’ response was decisive and severe.
On June 13, the Zionist regime launched an unprovoked 12-day campaign targeting Iran’s military, nuclear, and residential sites. The United States escalated tensions by striking Iran’s nuclear facilities in Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan on June 22.
Iranian forces responded immediately and forcefully. The IRGC Aerospace Force conducted 22 waves of retaliatory missile strikes under Operation True Promise III, causing substantial damage and heavy losses to cities across the occupied territories.
In retaliation for the US attacks, Iranian forces also targeted the al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar—the largest American military installation in West Asia—with a missile barrage.
The confrontation concluded on June 24, when a ceasefire was enforced.
