Amir Bakhtiari, the operational officer, disappeared from the second year of the Unity War between the army and the Revolutionary Guards.
Amir Bakhtiari, the operational officer of Karbala Base and one of the designers of the Khorramshahr liberation operation, said he disappeared from the second year of the Unity War between the army and the Revolutionary Guards.
Downplaying the army’s actions in the early years of the war is an unfair statement. There was not much opposition within the army to continue the war after the liberation of Khorramshahr.
From the second year of the Unity War, the command between the army and the Revolutionary Guards disappeared.
Leftist groups were accusing the army of moral corruption. Under this psychological pressure, no military force could endure.
Within 20 months, 15,000 army personnel were purged.
They believed anyone serving in the intelligence unit was a SAVAK agent. They eliminated the army’s intelligence organization with this argument.
Despite all the army’s problems, the Iraqi army landed in the deserts of Khuzestan. Saddam, who had come to conquer Tehran, requested a ceasefire on the sixth day of the attack.
In the first seventeen days of the war, thirty army pilots were martyred.
