Over A Million Iranian Combatants Organized for Ground Battle with US
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - A source
revealed that more than one million Iranian combatants have been
mobilized for ground confrontation with the American forces.
An informed military source told Tasnim on Thursday that
with the growing speculation about the possibility of a “historical
folly” by the US in launching a ground invasion on the southern front of
Iran, a wave of enthusiasm has emerged among Iranian ground fighters to
create a “historical hell” for the Americans on Iranian soil.
The source noted that in addition to organizing more than one million
fighters for ground combat, in recent days there has been a massive
influx of requests from Iranian youth directed towards the centers of
Basij, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), and the Army to also
participate in this battle.
“The US wants to open the Strait of Hormuz with suicide and
self-destructive tactics; that's fine. We are ready for both their
suicide strategy to be executed and for the Strait to remain closed,”
the military source added.
The US and the Israeli regime launched a large-scale unprovoked
military campaign against Iran following the assassination of Leader of
the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several
senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.
The attacks have involved extensive aerial strikes on both military
and civilian locations across Iran, causing significant casualties and
widespread damage to infrastructure.
In response, the Iranian Armed Forces have carried out retaliatory
operations, targeting American and Israeli positions in the occupied
territories and at regional bases with waves of missiles and drones.
