Major General Gholam Ali Rashid: Any threatening action against Iran is coordinated with the United States.
Major General Gholam Ali Rashid said today, Tuesday, that the army and the IRGC assess any threatening actions by Israel as being based on coordination and support from the United States.
Speaking to IRGC and army commanders, he warned that any country collaborating with Israel to threaten Iran’s national security will pay the price for its actions.
Israel has repeatedly attacked positions and forces linked to Iran in Syria. The Israeli government usually does not comment on this, but Israeli media and some former officials of the country attribute these attacks to the Israeli army.
Following recent nationwide protests, international pressure has intensified for the European Union to also list the IRGC as a terrorist organization.
Meanwhile, in Iran, since last night, the joint specialized air defense exercise ‘Defenders of Velayat Skies 1401’ has started with the participation of the army and the IRGC, under the command of Khatam al-Anbiya Headquarters, covering two-thirds of the country’s airspace in a completely realistic environment.
